Don't understand a log-entry

Hello

I'm not new with ArcServe but there are several things I've never understood;-)

Every night ArcServe make a full backup on a Tandberg loader (7 tapes + cleaning tape)

It starts at 11pm.
In the activity log there are the following entries:
23:00 run backup job (that's ok, I understand)
02:00 the following media can be used in device
group XY for the next job on date 11.09.05
02:01 1. TUESDAY [1770]
02:02 2. BLANK MEDIA

I don't understand this message. It seems it needs a second tape, but this is not possible.
I have 50GB data, and we have 200/400GB tapes

What's wrong? Am I wrong, is this only a confusing message or what?

Thanks for your help.

Daniel
 
The job has finished, it is simply displaying the tapes that are valid for the next time the backup job runs.
 
Thanks a lot!
I assume to have to learn a lot of stuff yet;-)
