 This is how we do it. We however use simple scripts that do the job for us
and a sheduler runs it. We can simply change a parameter to change the
amount of copies left on disk.  Confirming it is successful to tape is what
we wanted to control at a native level.

I think we backup in the terabyte range to disk then ship to tape. Just ask
any thing specific you want about this.

Hi Peter,

my problem is on backup, not restore..
I have successfully tried to backup directly to tape
using multiple channels, but this is not what i want.
(each node on RAC' instances have local tape)

I need to backup existing backupset in disk to tape.
Because currently my backupset are located in each
instances, command 'backup backupset' does not work as
i post before.

regards,
tomi
