Re: Tape Backup issues.

We looked at that solution a couple of times, but never pursued it because the best possible network times were painfully slow. Even local ESCON drives can't do the job in our tiny shop. We are using the CNT boxes in a XRC solution but still have problems getting enough glitch free bandwidth. H

Re: Moving data between Sysplex's
