I thought the Storage Migrator was End Of Life?

Just remembered, the name of Veritas' HSM product is "Storage Migrator".

Available at a vendor near you!

:)

Another option might be a newer feature of Veritas Volume Manager.  A volume
can be composed of multiple plexes.  These plexes can now be "costed" in
some way.  You could buy some big, slow, cheap disk for old files & keep
your popular files on expensive faster disk.  Volume manager can now be set
with rules to migrate seldom used files to the cheap disk keeping your more
needed stuff on fast disk.  It's supposed to be an auto-magic kind of tool.
Everything stays on line but you don't need to keep expanding your expensive
disk arrays.

Beats spinning tape every time you want something from your archive.

Hi, yes in answer to the question, I am referring to MOVING off old
Archive Data - similar to a HSM Solution - Rather than have 1TB of Old
Data and a few hundred GB of live Data, if the majority of unused data
could be moved off with Netbackup, great!

If not, looks like another solution has to be bought!
