[Sunhelp] Tape library recommendations

[Fletcher, Joe]

Hi,

Hope you've got some cash to spend on this. A DLT autoloader (800Gb) will
cost you
around 6-8 thousand UKP. Add to that another 10-15K worth of software if
you go via
the Networker/Netbackup route. You can shave this down a bit if you need a
lower capacity 
system. There's no getting round the hardware costs. On the software side
you might want to look at AMANDA.

Cheers

Joe

Howdy all -

I am not the biggest Sun/Solaris expert in the world, and I would like some
advice.
I have a customer who has a 333 gig RAID tower attached to a NuTec Ultra
Sparc clone
running Solaris 7.  They are looking for a tape backup solution.  Does
anyone have
any opinions on tape libraries/software?  This really needs to be a fire and
forget
solution, if possible.  The comany is small, and they don't want to have to
hassle
with the system, they just want it to run.

Thanks a bunch for your input.

Thomas
