I don't like to advertise on the listserv, but since UHC is already a T-REX
customer, you might want to check out our Xtinct product.  It will wipe data
(make it Xtinct!) on tape and/or disk.

Subject: Data erase on stacked backend tapes.

We have the need to erase any residual data on some stacked backend vsm 
tapes.  I've heard you can do this with FATS/FATAR but wondered if there is 
any other method to do this?  Everything else I have seen seems to require 
the tapes be added to your tape management system and even then there is 
some doubt that this will work.

Thanks

John
