GHRC DAAC decommissions tape library

The GHRC DAAC has decommissioned its Sun StorEdge L700 tape library, which served as the DAAC’s data archive. GHRC Operations staff has completed migration of all datasets from the aging tape archive system to spinning disk and discontinued use of the system last year. Since that time, cross checks of data on the main data server, disk archive and tape archive have been completed and any discrepancies resolved. The DAAC maintains at least two online copies of all data and related documentation, with off-site backups for selected datasets.
