So it's being set up as a Virtual Tape Library rather than a SAN... No 
difference either way really (other than the way the channels get allocated, 
ie. tape versus disk). The backup/restore times would be greatly improved over 
traditional tape storage.

Thanks for the posts, some great information.   I am a new posting and replying 
to the post but have been reading them for at least two years.  I hope I am 
replying to these in the proper manner.

EMC Rep  told us the dedup device would present itself to RMAN as a 'TAPE' 
device.  Our current ATA SAN disks are 'DISK' devices in RMAN.
 Any perceived disadvantages to that? Sorry I am not an RMAN guru.
