Lustre discuss - Jul 2010 - Archiving data

This isnt a question directly about Lustre, but a question towards the
admins. What software/hardware do you use to archive data? I''ve heard
of other places where they have an archive server, where users copy
files to it and on its own will moves those to tape, and at the user''s
request, bring them back. Any open source(free) software for this?

Thanks
David

Hi David,

I believe a few places use Oracle SAM for archive management, which is now
available as open source software:
