Negative, only in my wildest dreams do I think of us
ponying up the cash for enough storage to make DSUs a reality. We looked
at Diligent's ProtectTier and 25:1 deduplication, but even that was too
pricey. I've put together an ROI that should get me enough disk storage to
hold a week or perhaps 10 days worth of backups on disk, but after that it has
to be purged to tape and over-written.
Sigh... now we're looking at dumping the VTL and using a
DSSU / SSO Combination!!!
Someone shoot me.

jonathan, would this be *instead of* using your VTL
appliances as "disk", mounted as NFS or CIFS shares and written to as
DSU

Subject: Re: [Veritas-bu] VTL images to tapePaul,The vaulting in 5.0 does not allow images to be copied from a VTL to tape. The option is in the software but it does not work. We have confirmed this with Symantec that the vault was written for tape to tape copies not for VTL to tape. Even though netbackup sees that virtual tapes fine vault someone "knows" these are not real tapes and copy process does not function.

Subject: Re: [Veritas-bu] VTL images to tapeHave you thought of using Netbackup Vault, or are you purposefully trying to avoid the licensing costs?with Vault, once you setup the policies, you'd schedule the duyplication jobs just as you would a backup schedule.Paul-------Original Message-----

Subject: [Veritas-bu] VTL images to tapeNb 5.0 mp6 Solaris 9
We are getting ready to use EMC CDL VTL solution. One thing we see is that we need a script that will run everyday, possibility several times a day to copy the images from the VTL tapes and write them to physical tape. Does anyone have a script that does this? We need to vault the images off the VTL to tape and will need a script using Netbackup commands to do this part manually. How is every one that uses a VTL getting those images off to tape.
