I'm upgrading to a Compaq 20/40 DAT autoloader which has the capacity to hold 8 data cassettes.I will be using ARCserve 7.0 for Netware and does anyone have any suggestions to the backup scheme i should use for this configuration. I need to perform full backsups on a nightly basis.

Even though you are doing full backups every night, I would still stick with a proper tape rotation so as not to overuse them. Have a tape labeled for each night of the week, and if friday is your last day of the week, use 4 of those and rotate themon a monthly basis rather than a weekly basis for the rest of them.
Good luck!

Mike
