All I have to say is where did they get their network lines ? ? ?

     There is already a backup piece that will backup infinite terabytes in
     a four (yes, 4) hour time... but it is rack dasd with DLT drives in
     the back half of the drawer...so 10 drawers would be 80 drives and 10
     DLT's...  each drawer takes 4 hours to back up but run independently
     of each other soooo a bazillion drawer system would still only take
     four hours to back up...  all local though... no "over the network"
     backups.
     In case you are wondering... it is IPL systems in Dallas Tx...
                                  (I'm not advertising, just informing)
     later
          Dwight

Hi,
        Anyone heard about the Openvision press release,

        Apparently they are able to back up about 504 gigabytes
        of data, (oracle database) using their netbackup product.

        Sounds good, we use adsmpipe and get at most 10 gigabytes
        an hour at most, even if Openvision are being a bit
        optimistic, even 200 gb an hour sounds great.

        We will be attempting to backup 14 Tb databases next year
         it will take us a year to do!!!!


        Any plans to make ADSM fster would be great !!
