Cool :-)

Hmmm - we had a Solaris machine until recently; now everything here
(except my Debian Sniffers and Workstation) is on Windows.

7.1

1 Autoloader with 1 Drive and 8 Tapes, 100/200GB un/compressed each

Hmmm - some 50GB for a full backup of the most important data (which
used to be CVS on Solaris and is now Synergy on Windows). Maybe another
50GB for the rest (Exchange- and SQL-servers)

ok; so far I had this running...

ok...

ok;

at the moment I tried to save something else than the default save set
'All' - but no matter what I try there (like D:\ (we are talking Windows
here)), it doesn't work. 'All' went like a breeze, but that would be too
much data...

ok until tomorrow - and thank to all of you for your help!
