Hello I would like to use the Exabyte jukebox with random access on Vaxstation 4000 using VMS and Decstation 5000/200 using Ultrix. In the future I'll use Alpha workstations. I would like to know if anybody is using this device and to know how it works. I understodd that there is a device called Exb10 that cost about 6000$ for sequential access to which you can add an exabyte 8200 or 8500 drive. If you want random access you spend other 1000$ to get an Exb10i But then you must pay 3000$ for another board for Ultrix or 6000$ for a software on VMS to use it. How can it be? -- Ciao, Michele ****************************************************************************** * Michele Michelotto, INFN Padova, Delphi group. * * Internet: michelot@dxcern.cern.ch BITNET: MICHELOTTO@IPDINFN * * Tel (+39).49.844347 HEPNET: VAXFPD::MICHELOTTO * * "Ho bevuto CHE COSA ?"

I'm mainly interested in a solution for VMS, but may be I'll forced to use a U**x workstation to do the job.
