As someone who uses TSM, Veeam, has a few TS4500’s and about 18PB of tape this excites me :)

Glad to hear about the excitement.  We use a few tape servers now with PBs of data in them within a short time and they are only growing.   One service is Veeam specific too with tape.

I think Tape will never die. There are so many great use cases for it.

One thing I would like to know is if Veeam ever came up with a way to report on exactly what was on a tape. Before Cloud Connect Tenant to tape jobs when I was using file to tape this was an especially bad problem because we were told to use a Sql query. Then were was the issue of a report for how much data any given Tenant had on a tape. Could be these issues were solved.

I am truly hoping VONE v12 solves this issue and will have to see how v12 handles it.
