Dear mario, If you have 300GB of data to backup everyday, then you can insert your tape into the drive and schedule all the client backups accordingly to be backedup to that tape. Still if you want to keep one tape for everyday, then you need to take selective backups for everyday. I once had

To explain further. If "a single node" has backed up 700GB it looks to me like it is impossible to force multiple processes to an offsite pool unless somehow part of the data is on tape and part on disk. If that data is exclusively one either one it looks like we're forced with a single process wr
