Franz, In a real disaster you cannot rely on getting ANY tapes, whether logical or stacked from a VTS. Only data which you have exported or copied to physical tapes at another site is available; I do hope you dont plan on being able to step back inside the 3494 and pick up the important stacked tapes and take them to the recovery site. If you really have active tape data and need almost instant recovery you should look to Peer to Peer VTS
