By default, Arcserve Backup enables the Media Maximization option, which lets you submit multiple GFS backup jobs using the same media pool. By sharing the same media pool, you can append multiple jobs to the same tape sets rather than creating new tape sets for each job. This reduces the amount of media you use when processing GFS Rotation jobs.
Important! To help ensure that Arcserve Backup writes GFS rotation backup data to the same tape, you must specify the same media pool prefix for the desired jobs in the Backup Manager window.
Note: To disable the Media Maximization option, set the NT registry DWORD value EnableMediaMaximization to 0. This registry key is as follows:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ComputerAssociates\Arcserve Backup\Base\Task\Backup
