Hi,

we are running Networker 7.2.2 and having a staging area
of 9 TB and 4 tape drives.

Due to operation system limitations which limits
the file system to 2TB each we have 5 file systems for staging.

During the nichtly backups most of the data goes to the staging area.
However some database backups goes directly to tape. In the evening
the data which was backed up 4 days ago to the staging area gets staged
to tape. Because we have 5 staging devices the staging uses all 4
available tape drives for staging leaving no tape drive for the "normal"
backup to tape.

Is there a possibility to limit the time "normal"  (i.e. the volume is
not at the high water mark and the data gets staged from disk to tape
according to the policy) staging operations to the daytime and to avoid
staging during the nightly backup time ?


Thanks!
