Microsoft DPM 2007 - Enable colocation of data on tape

If you have multiple storage groups with the same data retention policies, you can now colocate the data on the same tapes as long as you have installed theDPM 2007 feature pack. Most useful if you have a single drive rather than a library.

It's not settable in the GUI, but the following Powershell command turns it on:
Set-DPMGlobalProperty -DpmServer -OptimizeTapeUsage $true
