Our small shop does daily backups and weekly dumps using both HSM and Tivoli Storage Manager on z/OS. We use 3590 tape technology (triple-density "H" drives with double-long "K" [green stripe] tapes). Our tape inventory is currently 182 tapes in RMM. Failure is *extremely* rare. Gut feel is once every couple/few years we experience a tape media failure.
