Duplication is a one-to-one process, however you have made a very
interesting point with regards to the other source drives sitting idle.
I wonder if VERITAS would consider such a feature?

I don't really have a problem with individual duplications having to scan
through the tape, It's pretty much what I expected. The issue I have with it
is that there are 7 other drives sitting idle. They could be scanning
through other tapes at the same time. I can't seem to find a way to get them
into use though.
