Several options, all -very- expensive. You need a very big pipe and one or more humans to care for the tape unit.
What are you trying to do? How far is the run? -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of David Logan Sent: Tuesday, May 13, 2008 2:37 PM To: IBM-MAIN@BAMA.UA.EDU Subject: Remote tape drive I would like to have a tape drive at a remote office from where the mainframe is physically located. Preferably a (normally) channel attached tape drive, rather than a SCSI type of thing, although I would take the latter if given no other choices. Does anyone happen to know what options I have available? Thanks!
