Hello everyone! The environment here is going to be changing soon... We will be moving off of the mainframe and onto an AIX server that will be on our SAN. We will have 1 STK silo for the tapes for 2 TSM servers. Right now we are considering IBM's LTO or STK's 9840. I was just wondering if anyone out there has had experience with either one and if so, what are the pro's and con's of them? Has anyone that has worked with LTO know how long it takes to recover a bad tape? Considering that they are 100GB tapes, it was assumed that it would take 5 times as long as it does to recover a Magstar 3590(20 GB). And also, do the tapes get damaged easily or is that all a matter of handling them to take them offsite to vaults? Thank you!!!!
