T Tape rotation strategies V Virtual Tape Devices Tape rotation strategies determine when backups are run, the number of cartridges that are required and how they are reused. Virtual Tape Library targets on an HP StoreOnce Backup System can easily be incorporated into most tape rotation strategies. If your organization does not yet have a tape rotation strategy in place, see the HP StoreOnce Backup System Concepts Guide for example configurations. Virtual Tape Devices are backup targets on the HP StoreOnce Backup System to which the backup application on the hosts write data. They appear to the host as network-attached or locally-attached physical tape library or autoloader, but physically, they use disk space on the HP StoreOnce Backup System which, as in tape terminology, is referred to as slots or cartridges. 170 Glossary
