IBM's VMA software does give the option of GBs written per hour. The REPORT keyword has the option: REPORT(GBMAX)

(NIH/CIT) [C] Sent: 23 September 2010 03:26 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Reports for GB per hour to tape Can anyone suggest a methodology to measure GB per hour written to tape? Management is seeking to evaluate the additional CPU overhead that s/w encryption might entail. IBM's Volume mount analyzer gives tape allocation and tape mounts per hour but not, to my knowledge, GB written per hour. Yes, we are still discussing h/w vs. s/w encryption. Thank you to all who responded to the earlier thread.
