    Dear Managers,

    Thanks for the kind and encouraging emails that let me stay in-touch
    with this professional mailing list . Couple of managers were interested
    in my solution as they are going through the similar issue.

    My solution is:

    I am changing my configuration from v240 to v440 due to DB requirements.
    SUN ships v440 with 73 GB disks drives that will put DAT72 tape drive
    under capacity ( I will include two more v20z servers in the backup
    schedule). SUN doesn't sell SDLT220 any more. I have to go to SDLT320 (
    160 GB native capacity). I will go to Quantum resellers because Quantum
    SDLT320s are 2K (Aus $) cheaper than SUN's SDLT320.
