BTW: you are having an exposure with this bring-back + back-offsite. While
the "box" is onsite you have no off-site copies and are vulnerable to
disaster.
TSM is made to handle off-site copies without any need to bring them
on-site before new copy is send out. Look again through your procedures.

Subject: Offsite tape challenge
Worry...worry...worry...about disasters...terrorists...and recoveries. My
bosses worry a lot, me likely not enough.
Am storing copy pool offsite once a week. Box of tapes comes here, we
update
the copy pool, box goes back offsite.
What about a daily? They don't want to bring the box back and forth every
day...just place "dailies" in a building next door. But how might you
manage
that with TSM?
