Since you already have a license for CA 1, you can do that right now without having to purchase or license anything additional. With CA 1 Flexible Storage, that functionality is already built into the product at no additional charge or license needed. Please contact CA 1 support for more information, or you can contact me directly.

The TS7700 is also connected to Physical Tape drive TS4500. Our tape management system is Broadcom CA1. If we want to stop using the TS7700 and send our tape data to an S3 private cloud solution, but still want to replicate the data to Physical tape as well, what are the options ? Can we connect the S3 to Physical tape drive or we have to connect the Z16 directly? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
