DB2 v8.1 (UNIX) on tape

Hi,

Could anybody help me to find the size of database backup on tape?
According to my UNIX SP, there is no way to find it from UNIX level . There is because the backup executed by db2 command.

My DB2 on UNIX will have enterprise backup, using Veritas.But due unavailabilty of DB2 agent, I decided to have staging backup (db2->disk->veritas),

The prob is, I cant get the estimation backup size in order to setup temporary path for db2 backup(staging) .

anybody?pls help me
