Dear NetBackup Gurus,

I have inherited installation of NetBackup 3.4 with Sun L1000 library
and DLT7000 drives.

My tape drive type is set to DLT. At the moment I am getting 30-40G
per DLTIV tape (with compression - using /dev/rmt/0cbn Solaris device
).


Looks like NetBackup 3.4 supports DLT , DLT2 and DLT3.

Should I change my tape drive to DLT3 ? Will I be able to get more
data per tape?

Thank you,
Aleksandr
