Hi All,

I would like to setup my Dual 1.25Ghz G4 as a backup server for our
company. We maintain servers in a colocation facility and my idea is to
perform disk-to-disk backup from our servers to my Mac using BRU and
subsequently write to tape. My configuration is this:

(use a fixed width font here)

SCSI SCSI FC FC
Tape <------> FC <------> Hub <------> RAID
Library Bridge ^ Array
|
|
v Colo
PowerMac <------> Servers


The PowerMac has an Apple FC card w/dual fibre optic MIAs.

Is this possible "out-of-the-box"? If not, what additional pieces do I
need.

Thanks!

John Edwards
