I didn't know that Bacula gave any suggestions, but check with the tape manufacturer's specs. HP (http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/uk/en/sm/WF06b/12169-64242-342326-342326-342326-34632-20751.html) say that DDS4 is good for 2000 passes or 100 full backups, so once a year sounds about right for 3 tapes. __Martin ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Special Offer-- Download ArcSight Logger for FREE (a $49 USD value)!
