Dear mr Ken Sedlacek
I reccomend you mak the tape destroyed.
You can still try to get data from it. But the you can recreate the data on
it whit the Restore Stg command.

Hi TSMers,
Does anyone has experience with DWDM with SAN switches, we want to extend
our SAN using IP. We have Gigabit Ethernet connection between sites. The
idea is to configure remote tape library for TSM as local device.
Thanks,
Arshad
Many thanks Stefano.

After issuing node restore command my library spends a lot of time seeking

Can anybody explain me what is happening? And is it possible to shorten the

That way if you need to change the layout of the LAN outside of the DMZ,
