Erich Thanks for the tips - I have just monitored tonights backups of incrementals and some full backup of clients - all went well.
I configured one group of incrementals as a migration job and it went without a hitch. The migration to tape was done after all other jobs that wrote to tape after spooling - this was achieved by setting the job priority to 11 and I changed the priority of the catalog backup to 12. I have tested the restore of several files from migration jobs and had no problems. Thanks again.
