I am looking for a file archiving system for UNIX, similar to
that available on TOPS-20. The idea is that users queue up
requests like "archive this file [and optionally remove it
when done]" and "retrieve these files". Sometime later
an operator runs the program to process the requests, it
tells the operator which tapes to mount, and it all happens.
That's the basic idea. If anyone knows of any software at all
along those lines, public-domain, commercial or whatever
(vendors are invited to reply), then please send me mail;
please DON'T post followups. If I receive any replies
I will summarize to the net.
Thanks very much.
