We use AutoVault (www.coderelief.com) to handle the vaulting of our offsite
copy pool tapes and database backups.  It identifies the tapes for us and
prints reports of which ones to take offsite and return onsite.  It also
creates a set of disaster recovery scripts for restoring the TSM server in
case it crashes.
