It is restricted to one.  The best way to backup your data is to a disk
pool first, then bleed the diskpool to tape and you will get much better
performance out of your single session than you would if you backed up
directly to tape.

Subject: Multiple sessions per tape

We're running ADSM 4.2 on AIX 4.3.3, 3494 library, 3590 drives.

Is there any way to control the number of sessions per tape or is it
restricted to one?
