I am hoping for some insight as to the best way to do Vault duplication
in a timely manner.

I am currently running inline tape copy and vault a set of tapes each
day.  We have audit requirements that once a month I duplicate a set of
full backups and send those even further away.  I am allocating 2 read
drives for this process.  I am getting about 1/3 the throughput that I
normally get.  Is this to be expected=3F

Also, this process takes so long that it interferes with nightly
backups.  I'm trying to carve up this process into 3 days in a row -
trying to keep the process between the hours of 8 AM - 10 PM and then on=

the 4th day just running the eject process.

Is there any performance tuning specific to this process or a better way=

of doing this=3F  What have your experiences been=3F

Thanks a lot for all feedback !
