Alfred,
Yes, I'm looking for Disk to Disk to Tape solution.
Currently, Veritas uses the R200 as a storage media for incremental backups. The full and Filer backup goes directly to tape since I don't have enough disk space to dump all the fulls to the R200. For the Filers, Veritas can't backup NDMP device to disk.
So far from what I read, FalconStor has a pretty nice VLT solution.
Cheers,

Hi Marcus,
Are you trying to do Disk to Disk to Tape?
I do know that there is such a product Atempo that can use
Netapp as a virtual Tape drive.
Can tell me more abt this incremental backup going to R200 and full NDMP goes to tape?
Cheers..

Subject: virtual tape
Hi Toasters,
This is a bit off topic. I'm looking for a disk backup solution to complement our current tape backup environment. Currently, we are using Veritas DataCenter v4.5, on Solaris, and Quantum P6000/7000 library using SDLT. A lot of incremental backup are already going to the R200 but full and NDMP still goes to tape. Interested in something like a virtual tape solution that presents virtual tapes to Veritas and backup to the disk backend, R200. Also, if the virtual tape supports NDMP for the Filer backup that will be great.
Appreciate any suggestions.
Cheers,
