RE: Back up W2K server to iSeries tape drive - how?

Dan,

Check out this link about IxS sharing devices.

http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/iseries/v5r2/ic2924/info/rzahq/rzahqrzahqdevpo
.htm

Basically, the IxS can use the iSeries Tape drive as if it was locally
attached.  You'd want to run the Backup Exec on the IxS and you could backup
other Windows servers over the network just like you would if Backup Exec
was running on a stand alone server.

HTH,
Charles
