Re: SAN Vendor support for IBM i?

I'd image the restore times might be faster than waiting on the tape to
arrive from Iron Mountain. A full system restore from such a setup might
not be as fast as the Iron Mountain thing though.

I wonder if he has Grandfather, Father, Son type of multiple backups on
that NAS though.

I do know of people who change their journal receivers every hour and ftp
those offsite. I don't think he deletes them right away (or uses
commitment control anyway). This way the most he's lost from last night's
backup is an hour's worth of data. Some might slice their wrists to lose
an hours worth of data. Others might be jealous of his technique. It's
all a frame of reference.
