412.0. "Creating identical tapes..." by PRIME8::VAUGHN (Mike Vaughn DTN 339-5325) Mon Mar 31 1997 10:19

Hello -

	There's a note in this conference from last March, and another one
(393.1) that indicates that ABS engineering is working with SSM engineering to
allow multiple (identical) tapes to be simultaneously written.  Am I correct
about this?  If so, any idea of timeframe?  I have a customer who would like to
write 2 tapes simultaneously, and I'd like him to use this product.  The client
and server system are one and the same, an OpenVMS system.

Thanks.

mike

	Mike, I apologize - I misunderstood your request. We are working on a feature that will make a second copy of the backup after the backup is complete. This is different from doing two backups literally at the same time. Judy
