I'm getting it done right now, about 14 TB starting friday at 6 pm till
Monday at 6:00 am but it is tight. We only have a few Oracle RMAN backups
right now but we are getting ready to move about 4 TB of Oracle from being
a cold file level backup to RMAN.

Re: [Veritas-bu] Storage Unit
Recommendations
You are about 12 tape drives short for backing up that number of clients
with SQL and Oracle and 250 clients.
If your datamover can back up straight to tape, you are much better off
attaching it direct and getting the NDMP agent.
You will be in a constant fight to get your backups done.
Bobby.
