There are lots of great reasons to do that! Also, I understood the request to mean “cloud object storage” as the target. Cloud object storage can technically reside anywhere. Public commercial clouds’ object storage pools only represent a fraction of total cloud object storage. Back to Arye Shemer.... Arye, if even a “baby” IBM TS7700 is not an acceptable option for whatever reason(s) then my suggestion is to open a request for a product enhancement. I think that’s probably best aimed at IBM Backup and Restore Manager for z/VM since that seems like the most likely vehicle for this sort of functionality. To open such a request please visit: https://ideas.ibm.com I see that IBM Backup and Restore Manager for z/VM is listed in the Product field. Just type in “Backup and Restore” and it should pop up as an option. Maybe that product could have another input/output handler (CLOUDOBJ?), although it’d be up to the product team to consider (of course). ————— Timothy Sipples Senior Architect Digital Assets, Industry Solutions, and Cybersecurity IBM zSystems/LinuxONE, Asia-Pacific sipp...@sg.ibm.com ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
