Subject: How do you guys feel about polls?


I don't see polls very much (don't believe I have seen any), in the
three
years I have been on this list but they are pretty popular on others.
From
time to time I have questions that really aren't problems, but more
that I
want to know if the things that I am doing are "common practice" or how
many
others are doing the same things.

I know everyone is busy, so to the point.

Do you run more than one tape/copypool?

If so, how many more?

Ours:

2 tapepools

2 copypools


With DRM we have the standard tapepool with a copy to the copypool. I
while
back we had discussed needs for a second tape/copy pool for a much
smaller
group of backups with different management class and retention
settings.
This will put me with two tape and two copy pools in the same library
with
the copypools being offsite of course.

Anyway, if everyone feels against polls let me know and I guess this
will be
my first and last one.

Thanks,
Mark Bertrand
