Abstract: So, you are thinking about putting more data on tape or just thinking about what you currently have on tape? Should I be sending my DB2 archive logs and/or image copies to tape? Do you have or have heard of tape virtualization, maybe VTS, or own a new spiffy IBM TS7700? How large are tapes these days and how can I control my allocations? What happens if I lose a tape or the tape controller? Have you heard that tape is really disk, but tape also? What does this all mean? By the way, how does DB2 deal with the new tape technology and what are best practices when dealing with this new tape technology? Come and learn what new tape technology has to offer and what it means to DB2.
