That's what they actually do right now. We have a linux box with samba and the put their backup there. The only problem is that I will have to transfer 100 Gb over the network TWICE:
Once from the subversion server to the samba server
And again from the samba server to the tape server.
I wanted to avoid that.
If it were me, I'd look at using subversion's various internal backup
scripts (e.g. 'svnadmin dump', 'hotbackup') and putting the resulting
images on a "network drive" served out via samba on a *nix box. Then
backup the svn backup images on the *nix box. Of course, this assumes
you've got a Linux server (or servers) with sufficient space for this.
Once from the subversion server to the samba server
And again from the samba server to the tape server.
I wanted to avoid that.
