Can I use a tape drive that is not physically connected to my media server. I have my media server doing backup-to-disk, and I would like to be able to run that BU to tape the following day only my media server does not have a tape drive. I have another Netware machine that does (and it has the BE agent) on it...Can I use its tape drive?

No the tape drive must be local to the media server.
