[comp.sys.apollo] DN3500 <-> SUN

tone@marque.mu.edu (Peter Tonellato) (06/01/90)

I have recently purchased a DN3500. It is connected via ethernet
to a network containing several SUN SPARCstations. It is my
impression that it is possible to do my (Apollo) backups on
the SUN's cartridge tape devices. Is this true? If true which
documents should I look through for the appropriate information?

I know I can ftp any relevant files/cpio'd directory trees to the
SUN and then wbak on the SUN. However, (of course) I would like
to wbak directly onto the tape from the APOLLO. 

B.T.W. I am running O.S. 10.2.

Thank You for any and all responses. I will summarize and post
the solution to this problem or will forward the solution to
anyone interested.
