Accually, every now and again I used to see 3570 CLX tapes get about 60 GB on them compressed. But that was only for storage pools made up entirely of Solaris machines. Never really understood that, except to think that Solaris is real weird in places.
Normally, I was lucky to get 13 GB on CXL tapes. But then, 357X hardware normally stinks. Had a 3575 that used to break on a weekly basis. David N.

Maybe it's 3 minutes to 1) mount the tape 2) spin forward to the point where business can begin If your LTO mounts alone are taking 3 minutes, you need to have your system looked at, sir. Also, keep in mind that 3570 tapes held, tops, 20 GB. I've seen LTOs that hold as much as 240GB. -- Mark Stapleton ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Certified TSM consultant Certified AIX system engineer MCSE
