Hi,

at the University of Paderborn we are using OpenAFS on linux servers and=20
Tivoli on a Solaris Box. We would like to backup our AFS space with tivoli,=
=20
but unfortunately up to now IBM has only released an IBM AFS client for IBM=
=20
AIX.

I am actually in contact with IBM and have asked whether it would be possib=
le=20
to release a client for OpenAFS (on linux or solaris). As this does not see=
m=20
to be too easy IBM wants to know if anybody else would be interested in suc=
h=20
a connector.

So I simply ask the question: Would anyone else be interested in an OpenAFS=
=20
connector for Tivoli?

How do other people manage their backups?

Please include me in responses as I am not subscribed.

Is this the right place to post such a question?

Thanks,

Christopher
