We have concatenation, too. I just don’t use it.

We don’t concatenate, we actually span as needed. If you need to write 6TB of data in a single job run, BRU will either prompt for tapes if you have a standalone drive or automatically switch and load tapes if you have a library. Drag, Drop, Click – done.

BRU … because it’s the RESTORE that matters!

Right, I meant the data was concatenated (sorry old raid term).

I guess, just for curiosity’s sake, how would you make a duplicate of the 6TB write?

Two tape drives (or a 2 drive library), use BRU PE’s Doubler mode – write the same data to the two drives simultaneously.
