I just went thru my last 60 days (thats my tapecycle, and as long as I keep the index data too) doing 89 DLE's from 6 machines w/o it switching vtapes. So since I swapped the 1T vtape for a 2T vtape, amanda has been a happy little housekeeper. With my schedule, the 2T has been hovering at 49-51% usage. Copyright 2019 by Maurice E.
