Performance

Business Justification: (Why? Non-technical business case description. Do not reword Detailed Problem Description from above. What are the benefits to be gained by your company, and the vendor and others?  Quantify: run time, dollars, manpower, etc.   Why should the vendor do this for the customer?)

 

We require two copies of library backups:  one on-site and one off-site.  Currently we have to run LIBR twice to get the two copies.  A dual output tape option would reduce the backup time significantly and would also guarantee that both tapes are identical.  Other vendors of backup software provide this option but we want to stick with a pure IBM backup for disaster recovery.

Solution: (Optional)(Desired/undesired elements Note: Making a suggestion may limit a vendors ability to deliver a solution)

 

     

Impact: (Optional) (How will your company’s business be affected if a solution is not delivered?)
