Full backup spans 2 tapes, how to find second tape??

[triumphairsysadmin]

My weekly full backup spans 2 dlt tapes and to find the second tape i am having to go through a fairly lengthy process, is there an easy way to obtain this information?

Are you using a library? If so then I would probably partition the library and set up a partition of two slot and run the full to that partition.

Should be in the backup logs. It'll notify you when it changes tapes and what the next tape was.
