We use "The CSC Group of Michigan" for tape storage.  The facility is
located on the corner of Jolly/Dunkle Rd.  Annual fee is approximately
$1,000.00 depending on the amount of tapes you want to store. The tapes are
stored in a fireproof/waterproof, etc. environment.  This company provides
24 hour access; we transport the tapes ourselves and store them.  

If interested, contact Tony Ferrigan (393-8610).  I have been very happy
with the service they provide, and it's location is convenient for the
university.

Subject: [MSUNAG] off site backups


What solutions are different units on campus using for 'off site' 
backup, or at least, backups in another building.  Is there a service 
that ACNS or AIS provides for those of us who want to keep a redundant 
data source outside our building?  Are system administrators taking home 
tapes with them for off site storage (and is that even allowed)?  Does 
MSU have an agreement or preferred vendor for off site backup?
