Select Dynamic Tape.

4If you want to maximize backup storage capacity, select the Enable Tape Compression check box (for optimal backup performance, leave the check box cleared).

5If you want to specify a maximum size for the tape, enter the size in the Dynamic Tape Max Size box.

The default is 0, which allows the appliance to use the available space on a volume, up to 2198 GB.

Note: If you decide to change the maximum size at a later date, be aware that you can only increase the size; you cannot reduce it. To use a device with a smaller maximum size, you must either delete this device and re-create it using the desired size, or create an additional device that uses the desired size.
