Re: MODATA/IMHIST Archive - Do I need to restore

In the past I have lost access to tape hardware an acquisition and used a 
tape duplication service that can change the format.  I don't recall exact 
cost or who I used but it was somewhere in the neighborhood of $1000/tape 
media included to duplicate to the new media format.  If there are only a 
couple tapes this may be cost effective.

We didn't duplicate every tape, just the critical few since the data was 
archived.  If we need it in the future we will go back to Google to and 
follow the same process.

Re: [MAPICS-L] MODATA/IMHIST Archive - Do I need to restore






If you have both tape devices hooked up to the same i-series, you could 
try a DUPTAP command. This command copies from one tape to another.

Hi All

Excuse my ignorance here but I beg your indulgence.

I have a number of MODATA and IMHIST archives stored on tapes (1.2 and 

2.5 

GB data cartridges). 
We are purchasing a new i-series and will no longer have access to this 
format of tape ( we will only 
have an Ultrium). I therefore need to copy the data from one tape to 
format to another. 

Do I have to restore this data to Mapics then rearchive it to the Ultrium 

tapes or is there a way I can 
copy from one tape to another ?

Best Regards

Iain Wilson
