Mike:
For the Santa Barbara and San Luis
Obispo computer configs, it was a must that the tape backup from the 2400 server
be compatible with the tape system in the 1300 server. DELL stated the
only way they could configure this was to put the 10GB/192GB Autoloader DAT tape
backup into the 2400. That tape drive is capable of producing backups in
the DDS-1, DDS-2, and DDS-3 formats. I'm not sure what format the 1300
tape drive reads, but DELL assures me that the 2400 (in that config) can produce
tapes that the 1300 can read.
Blame me for the configuration change. Perhaps I should have just
ordered the 2400 and 1300 without tape backups, and just purchased them
separately for you to install. I thought I would save you time
by getting DELL to do a factory install on the tape drives for
you. Sorry for the headaches it seems to have created for you.
Next time I'll ask you first what will be a time saver. (P.S. See me first
next time you need to bitch. I'm probably the one to blame.)
