clarion san split

our nt admin is trying to push this emc clarion SAN split on ud for backups...anyone using this?

Also as an aside,we take rman backups to disk producing about a 130gb backupset, from there the nt admins backup to tape. My rman backup takes 45 mins and the backups to tape takes 9 hours using LTO 2 over the newtork. Is it me or does this seem like a long time. During the backup to tape the whole network goes wooooosh as the available bandwith is being taken up by the backups.

tks

steve
