This is not out of the realm of possibility, depending the nature of
your backup data.  The numbers reported by the two reports are
pre-compression.

issues?

Being a Veritas Newbie, I only recently discovered the wonders of the
available_media.cmd script. So, I instantly wrote up a script (awk, in
Cygwin) to give me a better looking report with totals based on the
output.
Well, everything works out, but it seems that I'm having a problem with
the
output from bpmedialist/available_media.cmd. I run a StorageTek library,
with 35/70 DLT drives. However, the amount that
bpmedia/available_media.cmd
says I have written to each tape is around 150000000Kb per full tape,
which
(divide by 1024 twice, unless I have my math wrong) equates to about
140GB
and double my capacity per tape. Am I reading this output wrong? Is the
output in something other than KB? Any help anyone can give would be
greatly
appreciated.
