How about beaming the tapes from one site to the other. Charlie Hurtubise Tecsys Inc. A little humour once in awhile.

I then send the dbbackups to offsite( Site-A to Site-B and viceversa) on a daily basis. Is it possible to take the dbbackup of server-A to the site-B drive and server-B to the site-A LTO drive? This will relieve me of the manual activity of sending the dbbackup tapes taken locally to offsite daily. Also being a scheduled activity there is no chance for failures. Any help is highly appreciated. Anoop
