RE: Use of 2nd library for BRMS DUPTAPBRM only

Rob,

Pencor recycling center, if needed.
Large industrial shredder.

I still have a basement full (5,000+) Reel to Reel, 8mm, 3590J, 3590K, LTO2, LTO3, LTO4 (1985 thru 2004).

Legal never gave the ok to destroy.
No device available to read them.

Anyone wishing to start a tape museum?

Paul

Your LTO5 tapes.
Kind of wondering what you plan on doing with your LTO5 tapes.
LTO 7 can't write to LTO 5, right? Only read?
How do you initialize them with CLEAR(*YES)?
Or are all your backups encrypted and you are using a bonded service to initialize them?

Paul, let's skip the suggestions for tannerite and/or other explosives.

I've completed my LTO5 to LTO7 migration.
I have a 2nd 3573 L4U library.
I'm considering maybe using it at a remote location for offsite DUPS only
Or
Possibly selling it.

If used offsite, I'm not sure how I would connect it to the iSeries. (no
iSeries at offsite location)
And I believe there is a limit to the fiber length.

Would it take additional IOA to existing LPARs ?
Or
Could this be accomplished with modifying the zoning on the Brocade 300 FC
SAN switch?

Thank You
