oli Posted May 17, 2002 Report Share Posted May 17, 2002 Last weekend we finally dared to switch our main server machine from Mac OS X Server 1.2 (the first Nextstep based server solution) to the current Mac OS X Server 10.1.4. With that change, we also had to switch our backup software from the discontinued OmniGroup Backup to Retrospect Workgroup. We currently have data backups and archives going back for two years on DDS-3 Tapes written by OmniGroup Backup. What would be the best way to transfer this data to Retrospect readable format, and is there any chance Retrospect could be teached in a future version to read those tapes? I think if Retrospect would support reading of foreign tape formats, it would make former users of OmniGroup Backup (and other solutions) very happy, and help to sell them on switching their servers to use Retrospect.

IrenaS Posted May 20, 2002 Report Share Posted May 20, 2002 Retrospect can't read another company's proprietary format, unfortunately. The only way to trasfer this data will be to restore it with the other program and then back it up with Retrospect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
