That is not a bug. Suspending a tape does not prevent it from being read, only written to. I would implement Ed's suggestion about the primary going to disk. Of course you are probably talking about a gazillion bytes of data and you don't have the disk space for it. You could also use inline tape copy to create 2 tapes, one for off site, one for restoring to your dev/accp. Probably the safest solution.
