Without paying extra, you can actually have the copy created as the
backup is being made.  Just configure multiple copies in the policy.
That, of course, requires twice as many tape drives.

If you don't want to do that, and don't want to pay extra, you're in
command-line land.  Learn how bpduplicate works.  It will actually
automatically figure out what hasn't been copied and copy it.

If you are willing to pay for an extra-price product, Vault is very good
and will automate everything and give you a bunch of options.
