Thanks for the advice, However...we run a 24/7 shop, and have very little/none disk drive space. It is under the "advise" of my boss, to archive to tape...not to disk. That way, if we experience a disk crash, we can recover to the last minute/checkpoint. He has informed me that we cannot afford to lose a day's data.
If you know of any way to monitor the tape space of the tape, please let me know.

Much thanks,
