> I think we have a lot of benefits:
> *       quicker restores
> *       no waiting for the availability of tapeunits
> *       less administrative overhead
> *       migration from disk --> tape
> *       no reclamation
> *       less processor use

> *       no ATL
> *       No tape-units
> *       Easy exctending of storage capacity
