Opinions on Supertars (SCO and Linux)

Also please see Opinions on In Place Upgrades

This page is to collect opinions on using Supertars vs. hand rolled scripts. My own opinions are strongly expressed at http://aplawrence.com/Reviews/supertars.html

Basically, I think anyone who values their data should use a Supertar.

But other folks have different opinions.

Here's a form where you can express YOUR opinion:

Your experience (years in business, etc)

YES I agree.

NO I don't agree

 RootdirSupertaropinion : Bill Brier thinks bit errors

are a thing of the past, but there are a few things

missed there: Number one, they aren't. I've seen bit

errors even on DVDRAM. rare, but it happens. Two, verify

errors can come from the hard drive or the i/o bus having

problems. Finally, and this has been the case a number

of times: bit verification has shown employees "working"

at times they were not supposed to, and in one case

helped us identify a hacked machine.
