[Networker] VTL or disk cabinet backup
2007-10-30 03:31:28
Hello,
we bought a VTL recently, but now I'm asking myself: why a VTL, why not
just Disks? Networker is perfectly capable of using Disk backups
instead of the VTL. Disk backups have some advantages over VTL what I know:
- when cloning, it is not needed to skip the not used sessions when
parallelism is high
- possibility of purging recycled save sets on a disk device (1 good
saveset on a tape makes it impossible to recycle the tape)
Why would you choose a VTL then? Any thoughts?
