Re-duplicating backup sets for archival purposes

I need a solution

Hello,

Running D2D2T backups using Backup Exec 2010 R3. One of our requirements is that we do a month-end archive of certain data (email & file shares). I have the robotic library set up as one large partition, so all of the duplication jobs can write to any tape in the partition in a given week. We have it set up this way so it's easy for people to swap them when I am out of the office. The tapes are labelled Week 1A, Week 1B, etc. We also have a Week 2 set.

I do not want to have to pull tapes out of our regular rotation tapes to archive. I want to do a second duplication of the data in question AFTER it has already been duplicated by the jobs created by my policy. I have been doing this manually, but is quite cumbersome to find the proper disk files to duplicate and when I have tried doing a T2T duplication (which seems easier to set up), it is very slow and monopolizes both drives in the library.

Any help is appreciated.
