- Greetings...
- What can anyone tell me about Tape backup. I have a VAX 6410 and
- a MicroVax 3100. The 6410 serves 4 1.2 gig RA90's. The daily
- or weekly backup of users files is not that Big a problem.
- The problem is 6-10 hours of down time for a Standalone backup.
- I do the standalone backup once or twice between September and
- May ( this is the Academic Year). Over the summer it's done
- at least 4. As you can mostly likely guess the users do complain
- about the down time.
-
- Now I do not have a SCSI interface for the 6410.
-
- All ideas are welcome.
- Thanks
- BILL@hartwick.edu
