As some of you might have seen, I recently learned that there is no escaping the fact of needing separate tape media for every unique SP.
With that in mind, I'm contemplating removing one of my three SPs to reduce the mountain of tapes I'd need to buy and ongoing storage costs.
What I'm wondering, is whether the act of changing the SP used by a client necessates the need to get a real full from the client all over again. This would be significant for me given that 10 of my servers are at slow speed WAN sites where a real full means shipping out my USB drive to each and doing a manual seed one by one.
I'm hoping that CV will know that it has valid data stored in the original policy and let me run a new Syn-full in the new SP based on that.
Thanks
