Re: [Networker] Cloning from Disk

Not sure if this has been mentioned before, apologies if it has....

My understanding is that EMC now license VTL based on storage capacity,
eg. 10TB, 25TB.

Cheers,
Ryan.

You mentioned "less costly". I doubt it, any disk backup device which
has VTL functionality and capability starts with big bucks compared to a
straight forward disk backup storage array. And just like a tape library
with tape drives, you might need to buy/purchase license for every
component you configure and enable (autochanger, drives and number of
slots).
I have done an extensive analysis and research of D2D and VTL backup
devices, they both have pros and cons but the bottom line is the cost
and ease of setup/administration.

Librado
