Path to tape (PTT)
The path to tape (PTT) capability allows writing data stored in the ETERNUS CS800 to a
tape library which is attached to an FC port of the ETERNUS CS800 system. With path to
tape, backup data can be moved directly from the ETERNUS CS800 system to a tape
library without the need to travel through a backup host. A common use case for PTT is to
create removable media for long term storage. Path to tape is available on all ETERNUS
CS800 models with FC port option. PTT is supported by a number of backup applications
including:
● Symantec™ NetBackup™
● Symantec™ Backup Exec
● Oracle® Secure Backup
● Atempo Time Navigator™
● EMC® Networker before version 8.1
