Backups are running during the whole day, also during migration. And we migrate (automaticly) during backup. There is enough space, hi=50%, lo=10%, size=2400GB, we don't get above the 80% during the top backups. There is no maxsize threshold defined.

The doc's said that when a migrate starts, it selects a node or group to migrate (with biggest FS or biggest node in case of colloc.groups) and does the migration in 1 stream, so it "must" always use 1 tape at the time.

As far as i know, migration is always 1 stream per node/collocgroup, so there must be only 1 filling max. Right? Is this a bug, a feature or misunderstanding??
