Not at all....we were indeed not amused....

Hmm, our HSM data in IRIX is now more then 700GB, and still growing fast,
I don't think this ever will fit on a new machine (i.e. filesystem).
And even thinking about that will make you crazy: ever thought about
the time it will cost to restore 700 or more Gbyte data?
Cheers,
Henk.
