NetBackup only duplicates based on image, even if you specify a media id, it
looks at the images on them and duplicates them. That is why multiple tapes
could be involved.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Up-conversion / bpduplicate question.

Hi all,

When you up-convert, do you up-convert based on media ID or image ID?

When you bpduplicate tapeA -> tapeA2, tapeB is also included if its part of
a multiplexed stream.

If you duplicate by image it seems safer/better, comments?

Justin.
