Currently you can't write simultaneously with a single configuration at the same time. Chg-multi is something that may help you. But it doesn't work with different sized tapedrives, because there is only one tapetype option you can specify. http://wiki.zmanda.com/index.php/Changers#chg-multi_.28formerly_chg-generic.29 > Alternatively, can I write the same data to both drives such that I > create a duplicate tape set (one to keep on site, one to send off ?). You can setup RAIT: http://www.amanda.org/docs/rait.html http://wiki.zmanda.com/index.php/How_To:Set_Up_RAIT_(Redundant_Array_of_Independent_Tapes) But currently only 3 or 5 drive sets are supported.
