Hello folks, our company needs some kind of an offsite backup. Servers to backup are an Exchange2000 server and a W2000 file server. The replication doesn't have to be performed immediately. If data is been synchronized on an (two)hourly basis this would be ok. The solution also has to be...

The only problem is that that 40 gig drive now only reads as 30 gig when I go to install...

I have alot of NetApp filers and for the most part they serve well. But my problem is this; I potentially have 1k clients hitting the same project and a real issue of 1k clients hitting the same filer. While NetApp and WAFL are optimized for NFS even it gets dropped to it's knees when this...

Hi, We have a tape that was written using Legato Networker V6.1 containing information from a Tru64 UNIX system. It appears that during a tape re-label operation in the jukebox, this tape was accidently re-labeled with a bunch of tapes that we wanted to re-label. We have looked at the Legato...

Hello, We want to start archiving R/3 data. We are thinking of storing the archive files on an external file server, by mapping this drive to the application server. Has anyone experience with archiving the SAP-data on another server than the application-server? With kind regards,
