I don't think that MEDIA_UNMOUNT_DELAY works with NBU 6.0
MP2. Besides, I don't think the MEDIA_UNMOUNT_DELAY would work for
me. The backup occurs every hour, and if the tape needs changed, I don't
want the full tape to sit for an hour before it's finaly ejected and a new tape
put in, especially if more data has to spill over to a 2nd
tape.

# stop tape from immediately unmounting for oracle backup/restores: MEDIA_UNMOUNT_DELAY = 60

All, Is there a way to have netbackup keep the tape in drive of a robotic library? I'm doing hourly backups of the Oracle Archive Log, and the tape gets unmounted and put back into it's slot after the backup is completed. Is there a way to tell netbackup to keep the tape in the drive until the tape is full? We did that with Legato, and now the we have moved to netbackup we are concerned about the wear and tear on the tape drive. Since it's constantly mounting and unmounting the same tape.
