You may connect to a cloud location thinking that is where it will be stored. In order to be more efficient, some clouds may redirect your request to a closer location. Potentially the country of the requester. Why send the data halfway across the world when their cloud has a location closer to the point of origin. My assumption was that this was an ASAP request which is why I suggested FTP. Someone could manually FTP the backups starting today and a REXX exec quickly written to automate the process. Writing a cloud enabled program takes longer which could be considered later when there isn't a time constraint. Another possibility you may not have considered is using one of your satellite offices located in a different country using a PC with USB drives. Transfer the backups to the USB drive and take the drive to a safe deposit box or a company similar to the one you currently use. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
