Thanks, that jogged my memory too. I was thinking of Disk ARchive, but with
your description
I remember having seen this with a couple of other backup software vendors.

Direct Access Restore.  For NDMP under Veritas all restores are a full
seek along the tape set until the file is found.  So if file 987 on tape
3 of a 5 tape set is what you need, you will scan tape 1 and 2 before
loading tape 3 and then scanning to file 987.  With DAR you will load
tape 3 and access file 987 directly, or at least within a 2gb range.

All other platforms already do this, but NDMP as a protocol didn't
support this until v3, but Veritas is the last major backup software
vendor to support it.  NDMP v3 is a few years old now, v4 is in
committee, and v5 is in the lab.
