Hum ... Maybe my english is not perfect so :
There's no confusion :
MultiStream is : How many stream FROM one client (disk)
MultiPlex is : How many stream TO a single Tape drive.
For multistream you have to : set limit to job, and/or declare files with (NEW_STREAM directives) in your policy...
So you want to put all your backup on one tape, but you want to do this the faster possible, am I right ?
If your multiplexing is set to one, then only one flux from one client write to one tape at a time.
Are you set multistreaming to on ?
If yes how many jobs limit do you set by client ?
It...
So if you don't want to use more than one tape by backup, you must disable multiplexing (and not multistreaming, difference is stream: flux come from computer, plexing: flux go to one tape)
If you don't : the only choice is to done duplicate.
That's your choice.
