Hi, We have an ancient Magstar with A50 controller and 4 B1A drives. Needless to say, it is a bottleneck and we have done what we can to ameliorate. I'm interested in replacing the tapes with one of these virtual tape solutions. I wonder if anyone is using them and, if so, what kind of experience you've had? Also, the VTFM software indicates you can FTP your DR backups off site. Is anyone doing this and recovering at Sungard? Would like your comments on that as well. Thanks, Patty
