Hi,
we use Backup Exec 10 build 5520 SP1 and have a HP Tape library with two drives (W2k3).
I created a job template to do a full backup on Saturday and inside this policy I set up a job template to copy the job after completion from tape to tape.
I use multiple backup selections so I get multiple backup and duplication jobs.
The backup runs fine but when the first duplicate job starts, backup exec thinks "Hey I have two tape drives so I can start two duplicate jobs!".
So I have two jobs running and each of them is waiting for the other tape drive to become free.
I defined a preferred source drive in the job template but it does not help.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance,
Speridal
