Sure... With tape, you have infinite capacity, as it's a removable
medium.
You just have to engage in "library emulation" as you have an
operator watch
a console and respond to manual mount/dismount requests. But no serious
business wants to do that. Your organization needs to get realistic
about
its demands for backup capacity, and pursue a real library, choosing a
technology which can meet needs for the reasonable future, or be frame
expanded. Make the capacity planning case to your management.
