Hi Again,

> list and see what kind of reactions you get.
We have two systems.  A 969/200 with 30GB disk space and 512MB memory.
Also, a 937sx with 20GB disk space and 128MB memory.  The 969 has a DLT4000
drive currently.  Full backups are done nightly.  The 937sx is a new-to-us
machine that currently isn't being backed up.  The problem we have with the
current setup on the 969 is that it fails about a third of the time and
someone has to come in in the middle of the night to restart it.  Now that
that person is me, I want a better solution.  We are want a 24x7 solution.

My current thinking was to get another DLT4000 for the 937, or get 2 DLT7000
and upgrade both machines.  But I would like to hear what software people
are using and whether they like it or not.

Thanks.
