Hello,
Perhaps it's time to update diskspace on the VTL, use compression or DD or 
both.
Could you talk to DBA's about cleaning up the file systems and dumps if 
they have multiple dumps ?
What about snapshots ? They may be more efficient in disk usage.
How long do you retain the data on VTL ? can this be trimmed back ?
HTH

Backup level question






Hello,

I have a NDMP group which is right now backed up with the following 
schedule. "full 1 2 3 4 5 6" every week. Now i have to change the schedule 
because the above schedule is occupying too much of VTL space. The 
savesets are mostly the DB backups which are replaced everyday in the 
filesystem. Can anyone please recommend me a change in backup level.

Thanks in advance.

Narayan
