[ADSM-L] NBU guy in TSM shop and I need help

wow, so it really is as clear as mud.. :D
my assumption of the retention taking that many tapes was understood by me to
be a function of not only the shelf life (retention) but the reclamation (no we
don't use collocation, which I'm well aware we should) shotgunning those data
bits across a large number of tapes; if all this is true, without a large
increase in tape library capacity (we have 252 slots) or a large increase in
disk resources, is there an easy way to fix it? If not, I'm inclined to scrap
it all and put in NBU for backups going forward. saving the argument on which
is better, I'm an NBU guy and a staff of one, and my inclination is if I'm
spending buckets of cash, I'm doing it in a way I'm familiar. My first whack
though is to try and save this thing so I'm hoping someone out there can
provide a panacea or at least an incremental improvement that is free and time
efficient. am i spitting in to the wind?
