requirement is simple. Two servers exist on RHEL 3.0. The tape drive
is connected to server B. The databases are on server A. We want a
direct access to the tape drive on server B from server A. This way we
will be able to do online backups direct to the server B tape drive
from server A databases. Redhat support informed that this is not
possible, i.e., tape drives cannot be shared across the network.
What about doing it the opposite way? Share the systems to be backed up
to the server, and have the server do a backup of their shared
resources.
A *very* sensible and workable solution.

You have found the bank of Larn.
I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you.
I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!
