The methods, computer program products, and systems are disclosed for replicating data stored on a tape cartridge on one or more computing devices. When priming a first tape cartridge for writing of data, the first tape cartridge is configured for replication to a second tape cartridge. Subsequently, after loading the first tape cartridge into a first tape drive, data stored on the first tape cartridge can be directly transmitted from the first tape drive to a second tape drive in which the second tape cartridge is loaded without using an intermediate host computer system to facilitate data transfer. |
