It looks like it only used one tape -- what makes you think it used three?
How large are your tapes? It wrote ~1.8G of data, then stopped. Did
that filesystem run out of space?
No, the file system has some 300GB of available space, and the total
backup would have been kess than 20GB. However, I had the tapetypes set
to be 50GB and between this and other configs, may have had more 50GB
tapes defined this way than there is space for. I never actually backed
up anywhere near that much data or used that much space. Does that
matter?
Also, can I assume that there is no good reason to use a holding disk on
the backup server if you're doing disk based virtual tapes?
