Dear all,
we are about to purchase a "Dell PowerVault 112T LTO" for automated backups but some questions arise. The biggest one: is there any suggested software to control the backup library? This one (http://www1.us.dell.com/content/products/compare.aspx/tapeb_auto?c=us&cs=04 &l=en&s=bsd) has a single tape drive with 8 cartridges which should be used automatically, so there's not a need for the 24x7 staff to switch the tapes...
Every suggestion is welcomed! (either freeware or payware)
You might want to check into www.microlite.com for their BackupEdge product. It supports many of the newer autoloaders. -- Ken Schneider unix user since 1989 linux user since 1994 SuSE user since 1998 (5.2)
