you could have some stage policies in effect to empty these volumes, 
instead of doing it manually.

Re: [Networker] Backup to Adv-file device



Hi Ben,

That's the way they work.  When an AFTD fills up, you have to make more 
space available because NetWorker doesn't know how to make the backup 
span disk devices.  So, you'd see this as a design flaw.  I see it as 
you failed to read the manual -- that's the way it was designed and 
that's the way it was documented to work.
