Does this also apply when the primary pool is backed up only to an

Sure - Backup Stgpool should produce equivalence between the primary
and copy storage pools, regardless of their purpose. And if a single
primary is copied to both an onsite and offsite copy storage pool, then
the Auditocc COPY_MB value would be an even multiple of the primary if
the copying is up to date.

No matter the manner of comparison, one must keep in mind that clients
may send data in to the primary pool at any time, particularly in
today's more dynamic environment. Fluid values can thus make
comparisons problematic. The most important thing to look for, then, is
success in the Backup Stgpool operation.
