Having used virtual optical I didn't find virtual tape all that hard.
We've got some pretty kicking tape drives so virtual tape was actually
slower for us.

Not sure if you can use a SAN. Shouldn't be that hard to try though. Try
mounting an IFS directory to that SAN and then configuring that directory
to the virtual tape.
