1 server (2 CPUs) + 2 file storage (c NDMP) + 2 tape  autoloaders with 1 drive 20 tapes and 2 drives 48 tapes (presumably will be split into two virtual libraries). all this is to FiberChannel.Cant choose solution,help please )

Quick Look Solution

OK, but you make no sense.

OK, but you make no sense. What are the options?

1. 1 server (2 CPUs) + 2 file storage (what? Are you backing up TO, or FROM?) + 2 tape autoloaders with 1 drive each

2. 1 server (2 CPUs) + 2 file storage (what? Are you backing up TO, or FROM?) + 2 tape autoloaders with 2 drives each

Where does fibre channel fit in? Does the media server have access to it? Will the autoloaders be FC-attached? What data do you want to backup?

2 autoloaders is overkill...a single autoloader with 2 drives would work, but split what you have into your options to make it easier...

...doesn't give much to work

...doesn't give much to work with when it is put like that!

BE doesn't do virtual libraries, certainly not splitting a physical library into 2.

What EXACTLY are your options? Don't put them all into 1 line...put them into your available solutions...

If you find this is a solution, please mark it as such.
