Hi Rick
Did you ever find an answer to this? I'm currently attempting to consolidate from/to a StoreOnce Software device, and encountering the same issue. I've been looking for further information about consolidation best practices, or performance recommendations without much luck. i'm trying to find out whether it's better to
- consolidate to the same StoreOnce Software store
- create a new store within the same store root and backup to one store and then consolidate to the other
- find another repository for the consolidated data.
If you or anyone else has practial experience in managing these, I'd love to hear.
