timed backup

[deanna <deemaki@soonet.ca>]

Hello,

What would theoretically happen if I forgot to put the tape in one time?

Okay, yes, I did forget today, but I can get back to the office this
evening to put the tape in.

But what would happen if there was no tape and the back up went ahead?
Of course, we would miss that backup, but would the network or tape
drive blow up if there was no tape inserted?  Just wondering.
