Re: Ontape to Disk - HP_UX

2GB is not the limit for HPUX 10.01 on a T520 - it is 4GB max per filesystem. I am in the understanding that on HPUX 10.30 (future) filesystem size is over 100GB. Watch out for this beastie! I am also currently looking at HP OMNIBACK and INFORMIX ON-BAR for our backup strategy. I will be very happy to exchange notes with you as we progress. Send me an email if you are interested.
