Embodiments of the present invention provide methods, program products, and systems for reusing a duplex storage medium resource. Embodiments of the present invention can be used to transition between duplex media by determining that a prior transition from a first duplex storage media to a second duplex storage media is being performed and reinitializing the second duplex storage media to receive, for storage, duplex data transferred from the first duplex storage media. Embodiments of the present invention can be used to reduce potential collisions with naming conventions and reduce unwanted delay that results in forcing an offload by managing the recovery medium and keeping it available through policy based medium changes. 1. A method comprising:receiving, by one or more computer processors, application data;storing, by one or more computer processors, the application data on a primary storage media;storing, by one or more computer processors, duplex data of the application data on a first duplex storage media;responsive to receiving, by one or more computer processors, a signal to transition from the first duplex storage media to a second duplex storage media, determining, by one or more computer processors, whether a prior transition from a storage media to the second duplex storage media is being performed; andresponsive to determining that a prior transition from a storage media to the second duplex storage media is being performed, reinitializing, by one or more computer processors, the second duplex storage media to receive for storage duplex data transferred from the first duplex storage media.2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:responsive to receiving, by one or more computer processors, a signal to transition from the first duplex storage media to a second duplex storage media, performing, by one or more computer processors, a serialization on the primary storage media to suspend storage of received application data on the primary storage media. ...
