The Computer Support Group no longer does periodic tape backups of any user data disks. Even though this was only a fraction of the total disk space on CSG administered hosts, the ever increasing and unnecessary load on human and computer resources has severely reduced the cost/effectiveness of this service. Users are in a much better position to know which of the files they own need to be backed up and which do not. Any users needing help learning how to do their own backups, should consult the CSG.
