we tried that but  the elektromagnetic radiation of the
plasmatransmitter seem to alter the elektromagnetic field off the tapes
and render them unusable.

How about beaming the tapes from one site to the other.

Subject: Taking dbbackups on remote TSM servers


Hi all

I have two TSM servers connected to LTO 3583 located 300 KMs apart and the
dbabckup for the same happens locally. I then send the dbbackups to
offsite( Site-A to Site-B and viceversa) on a daily basis.

Is it possible to take the dbbackup of server-A to the site-B drive and
server-B to the site-A LTO drive?  This will relieve me of the manual
activity of sending the dbbackup tapes taken locally to offsite daily. Also
being a scheduled activity there is no chance for failures.

Any help is highly appreciated.
