Re: duplicate a backup tape

If you have two drives, use DUPTAP - Best option.
If you have only one, but have TAA Tools  use DUPTAPIN and DUPTAPOUT.
If you have neither of the above, find a friend who does!
Actually you can use the LABEL parameter to force the tape file name to
what you want during the save, but you're still in for a LONG haul. 
Dual drives is the answer.
