Hi,
Any one any suggestions on this?
I am running the backup server script and using a scsi dat tape, rotating
between four. Is there a way of copying the contents of the storage set from
one tape to another so that I do not have to repeat the procedure 4 times?

Hi,
I am new to the list, but am a longtime retrospect user, having
worked on it for hundreds of hours over the last 6 years.

I don't know how this affects data writing/reading, but
I know on macs that rebuilding a catalog from scratch is a long process
for one tape. Much less more than one.
I know that this sounds like the long way, but isn't it possible to start

Yet another thought about backups.
Currently we have a dedicated NT server with 280 GB of cheap IDE drives
inside. Multiple times, in a day, it duplicates the changes from critical
servers (two remotely). The changes are usually no more than 300 MB per
execution.
The duplication serves several
DLT has not addressed that issue. Since linear pulls the tape across the
heads at a faster rate (150 inches per second vs helical scan's .5"/second),
it requires streaming -- otherwise you end up "shoe-shining". This
reposition is very intense on the heads/tape of a linear drive.
This applies
Hi David,
I assume you're talking about having four backup sets in total, right?
Retrospect does has the ability to do a Backup Set transfer, but you must
have two tape drives available to do this. It won't be much speedier than
running a backup though, as it will still need to copy and verify.
