Hello,

I will wish to know how we calculate time necessary to complete a
backup for 17 To of data.
The speed of the network is 1Go/s

We are using a IBM3584 with 80 LTO3 cartridge and 4 drives.
The servers where the databases are hosted are connected to the server
tivoli storage manager by fiber optic of 2Go/s and 4Go/s.

I seek to know how long a full backup 17To will take and how much
cartridges will be used.

Thanks on beforehand for your precious help

Christophe
