This is where one additional point comes to mind - that of the size of virtual volumes which is controlled with MAXCAP on the device class definition on the source server. You can change the value MAXCAP any time. The larger the virtual volume, the more "white space" you carry at the target serv

Another comment - RAID 5 gives you striping, so does RAID 0. Striping is what gives you disk performance so that you can "feed" multiple tape drives at a reasonable speed. Example a TSM server with 4 LTO4 drives has an achievable tape bandwidth somewhere around 300 MB/sec - your disk needs to be ab

In many installations it's a close to meaningless number. For empty tapes, it's the estimated capacity of the tape multiplied by maxscratch.
