One possible solutions to your problem is to set the maximum number of
partially full media of the catalogbackup pool to 1

Can you post the  details from the catalog job in Activity Monitor

There should be multiple jobs for the catalog backup.

Hi there,

I'm quite new to Netbackup (TSM is my thing :)

However, we are having an issue where catalogue backups are using two tapes.
We use LT05 tapes, and can't imagine that our catalogue is using more than a
few gigs.

Have any of you had this issue?

What are some things I can check to help resolve this?
