There are a variety of approaches.

BRMS will save to multiple tape drives simultaneously.

SWA is an option is you use it properly, but I know of many people who do 
not use it properly, and it doesn't complain that your backup is bad.

If your system is clear (e.g.:  no cross library logical file dependances), 
you could save libraries A-L to TAP01 and M-Z to TAP02.  There is no longer 
a limit to the number of concurrent save operations.  (On CISC it was 9.)
