Bryan,

Are you using the red or green Magstar tapes?  Red ones hold quite a bit
more data than the green... also a bit more expensive.   Also the MAPICS
defaults for data compression and/or data compaction were not the most
effective.  We have our MAPICS backup settings as Data Compression = 2 and
Data Compaction = 1.  Also Tape format is FMT3570E.  These settings seem to
really make a difference in the number of tapes used.
