PreRoll Post

I could have sworn that I answered this, but it seems to be missing form the thread.

Currently, the change is only for the Areca board in the mLogic mTape unit. We are trying to get Areca to apply the change across the board to all of their SAS HBAs, but they’re not moving quickly on this.

BRU … because it’s the RESTORE that matters!

Actually, PreRollPost is ‘video aware’ so we intelligently split data between tapes such that each is self-contained. In other words, to retrieve a video volume or project never depends upon more than one tape. The contents of each stands alone (a much safer scheme IMHO).

And PreRollPost does not say “sorry, not enough space”–it simply prompts for another tape to complete the backup if it exceeds the capacity of the mounted tape.

Imagine Products had worked with auto-loaders in the past, it’s not magic. Just hasn’t been a priority for us yet with this software line.

Offload with Confidence…

Not only that PreRoll Post writes on Open LTFS & Tolis Bru writes it own proprietary.
