Retrospect want a new tape every day on one bu set

[Guest]

I am using a two-set backup, started a couple of weeks ago. i do an incremental backup, so the first day of each set is probably pretty full, so i expect to start a second tape within a couple of days. one set is on tape 2 and still has alot of room. on the other set, the system wants a new tape every day. the previous days' tape is not at all full. these tape are too expensive to use like this. why is the system doing this? how can i get it to stop?

 

 

 

Thanks, Karen

Please check your script and list your exact setup so we can see a clearer picture of what might be happening:

 

 

 

Most important will be the destination(s) and the schedule(s).

 

 

 

Also, check your Retrospect operations log for any error messages you may have (Window > Operations Log)
