Jack Connor suggest:
"You might look at a short term rental of Suprtool and use it and STExport
to turn your data sets into nice readable formats that can be ftp'd where
ever you'd like to store them...they can also easily be loaded into a SQL or
other base...
I don't know that this is a <plug> as I'm not associated with Robelle; just
really happy with their products."
There is a possibility that you are already a Suprtool user. As Jack wrote,
Suprtool can be used to get the data into a SQL RDBMS. After that you can
use SuprtoolSQL (a product written by Transformix and sold and supported
through Robelle) to access the data in the SQL database (MSSQL, Oracle,
Postgresql) on Windows, HP-UX, Linux, etc. That way if you already have
Suprtool skills you can use them to your maximum advantage.
We are associated with Suprtool hence the plug.

We have a HP3000 that we are going to decommission, sadly. I have powers
that be that want it turned off sometime next year, although I think it will
be longer than that.
Does anyone know of a Service that will read DLT IV tapes or convert them to
some other usable format on a Windows platform or HP9000 Integrity server?
Most of the data files are Turbo Image database files. I haven't checked
with HP, but we have no service contract with them anymore, other than time
and materials. Simply put, these are for archival purposes only.
Of course the simple solution is to run the HP3000 N-class, probably for the
next 10 years. It never goes down. But that call is not mine to make, they
want to unplug it.
Strange question, I know.
