What can we do or what do we tell the users?
  • Do a full back-up
    Not enough:
    • On-line disk space for all the user files
    • Time to transfer off-line files to disk
  • Tell users to back-up to tape storage themselves
    (take no action)
    • Same problem as above
    • Migrated file thrashing
    • Garner bad will
  • Migrated files already in tape storage!
    • Rename them?
    • Many technical issues to resolve
