I guess my question would be is a Duplication treated the same way as a regular 
backup?  When a backup starts it looks to see if it has available media in the 
pool it is writing to, if there is none it looks for a scratch tape, if it 
finds one it assigns it to the appropriate pool.  Are duplications treated the 
same way?

Thanks,

Scratch aren't necessary scratch if they are frozen, run bpmedialist and 
check for frozen tapes first.
