Justin, Jeff,
Thank you for your answers.
Indeed I was trying to multiplex backup and duplicate to the same
tape. Looks like my problem isn't linked to multiplexing - right now
all my backups are done, tape drive is idle but I am getting the same
error.
Is NetBackup trying to find tape in a particular volume pool (I wish I
knew which one :) ) and failing to do so?
Thank you,
Andrey
