Hi Simon, You are correct in that Budtool fails to run because the new filer has a different host id, however you should be able to get Legato to move the license from one host to another for you. In answer to the question about controlling the robotics from the filer, the answer is no. If the library you are using can be setup in sequential or stacker mode, you will be able to use it, with the native dump and restore utility, but for true robotics control, you do need a 3rd party backup package. I don't know if you are aware of this, but there are several packages that are certified with the filer, including Veritas. The others are Workstation Solutions, www.worksta.com http://www.worksta.com , Commvault, www.commvault.com http://www.commvault.com , and Syncsort, www.syncsort.com http://www.syncsort.com . You might want to check them out, as they all offer different features and benefits, and are cheaper than Veritas. Hope this helps.

Hi!
I am currently having a problem with Budtool. We have just had a F760 head put in, on an evaluation, to replace our F520. We have Budtool installed and running OK for he F520. However, with the new filer in place, Budtool fails to run. I have restarted the daemons and get an error message "Invalid License Password" I am guessing that this is because the new filer has a different numerical host id.
I am told that Legatto are being quite diffiult where Budtool is concerned, and we made a decision to lapse support this year due to the EOL of the tool and the desire to replace it with Veritas. With this in mind, I'd like to be able to use the Dump command for now, until I get a solution for Budtool. Has anyone had experince of multiple tape backups with dump? Can it be done? Can the NetApps control the Jukebox?
Any advise would be greatfully recieved?
Simon
