I have a 1 Gbit link between my primary site and my backup site, and I'm
actully consindering using a Linux box with a lot of disk space NFS
mounted on my TSM server as copypool, just to scratch the complexity of
offsite tape managment. I don't see the big difference between network
speed and bus speed when I'm running Gbit network, can you elaborate?
