Well, an offsite disaster recovery tape set is a copy pool, and I suspect that many companies would desire to recover from a disaster. Perhaps the IBM rep means an onsite copy of data? In any case, no technology is infallible, so... I doubt that TSM management would agree with that rep. Nor would IBM Marketing, I imagine, as IBM does sell tapes. ;-) Richard Sims
