Yea, it is typically the case, especially with the GE folks.  My take on
this is, if we pay,,,we say what goes.

            Are there any folks on the list that are using TSM in a
hospital?

            Sometimes we have to battle with some of our software
venders to allow us to backup their system using TSM. Sometimes they
will tell us that the system is FDA approved as is and must be backed
up
using a built-in tape drive and we can't touch the system. Some times
that might be believable but not always. It seems that GE appears to
be
especially hard headed in this regard.

            We bought into TSM because you back up anything (well most
anything) and not have to worry about having assorted different tape
drives scattered everywhere.

            I would like to compare notes with other TSM people if
possible.

            thanks
