We also haven't implemented vault but I expect us to have the time to do it=
=20
in september.

What we do is to take full backups the first 5 weekdays to a volume pool we=
=20
call "onsite". In the weekend we take also take a full backup of everything=
=20
but this time to a volume group called "offsite" with a longer retention.
On monday we just eject the tapes in the "offsite" volume group and ship=20
them off site.
