RE: the whoops! and off site tape storage

["Chuck Lewis" <clewis@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Where I used to work we had them stored offsite, picked up each morning,
etc. We would get them back in about the same time but I'm thinking it was
around $90.00 (?).

Now at a MUCH smaller company and I take them offsite with me...

Subject: the whoops! and off site tape storage

What are other doing with regard to moving backup tapes off site?

Just curious.

We send them out every AM and I'm finding that it would be convenient to
have a
tape on site to restore a "whoops!" file (one that got whacked in error by
an
embarrased pgmr).  It costs us $300 to retrieve a tape and takes 2 hours.

So....

Are others sending tapes off immediately or waiting a day or so?

Jerry
