Linda,
The compression rate depend of the kind of data. We have 400 PC Clients
(With data volume from 4MB up to 2GB). With 1 versions it takes for us 5 DLT
7000.

Subject: Client Compression Rate
This is probably directed more to IBM but I would appreciated it if any one
has any info or can point me in the right direction. (I feel like I am
going around in circle)
I still have questions concerning the Client Compression Rate.
Server: AIX 4.2.1 with ADSM 3.1.5
Clients: NT ver 2.x.x
NT ver 3.x.x
Tape Library: 3575-L24
I have client compress on due to network issues. I need to est. the amount
of tapes needed for roughly 600 PCs. My question is what kind of compress
rate can I expect using Client Compress. (I am aware of the compression
ratio for the 3575 - raw 3:1). I placed a service call but so far all they
have told me is the capacity of the library. HELP! If I get an answer back
from IBM, I will post it. Thank in Advanced.
