Hi Elvis

It sounds like your are doing your primary backups to disk, and later want to 
move the savesets to tape.  That is exactly the use case that NetWorker's 
staging functionality was created for.  Read up on staging in the NetWorker 
Administrator's Guide.

Subject: [Networker] Cloning

I would like to get the commands or advice on how to tell networker to clone
data to tapes so that when it comes to backup time, there is enough disk /
storage  space ... sometimes i get errors where the space ran out and
networker had to clone data just to free up space before continuing with the
backup.

but often during the day when my backups are not running, networker clones
some data to tape but not as much as i would like it to. i often encouter
this error on weeknd when its a difficult time and no staff in office.
