• i had impression that there are two options

    I have a daily full db backup via SQL maintenance plan to file system at 10pm.

    AND

    I also have a daily direct backup of database via arcserve SQL agent to tape at 11pm:

    Monday to Saturday - differential

    Sunday - Full

    and thats the case then why there is duplicate backup for sunday
