Multiple backup jobs on a single tape #12
Comments
You can delete the old tape record (which means deleting the library records of files inside it), and create a new job (will overwrite the old content on the tape). This software doesn't have 'appending' feature yet, so you must overwrite the old records. |

I was wondering if there is a limitation when performing a backup job to the same tape, here are the steps that I did:
If this is intended behaviour, do you think it would be possible to allow appending data to an existing tape when you don't have enough data to fill it upfront? I understand there may be other complexities. I haven't investigated what happens if you enqueue a backup job that exceeds your tape's capacity, does the tool allow "continuation" on the next tape?
Thanks for this great project, it is great for smaller more arbitrary archiving. I am interested in trying to contribute if help is needed anywhere!
