Hello,
I am in the middle of decommissioning our HP Data Protector 7 Environment. In our HP Data Protector environment, there are 2 Management Cells, an attached HP Storage Works Array, and 4 MSL libraries. I am asked to decommission the HP DP 7 environment, however, there are still existing tapes that will eventually come back to us and I might be asked to recover some of the data someday. In the event that I will need to recover any of the data of any of the tapes, will I need to keep my HP DP7 infrastructure intact or can I decommission certain portions of the HP DP7 Environment?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
