Hi guys, I just prepared a config for a customer. Here is the situation: *1 LTO2 device, 2 local raid 5 devices as storage *I want create a full backup for every client + incremental through the rest of the week. Both, incremental and full backups go to the disk storage, but to different pools *I want to create a virtual full backups offsite storage to tape. This happens once a week, always for a multiple jobs.
There is not enough disk storage to keep multiple full backups. So the vbackup to tape is pretty important. I specified the Next Pool Directive on the Full and Incremental Pools like this: Pool { Name = backup01_Pool_Full Pool Type = Backup Next Pool = LTO2_Pool Recycle = yes AutoPrune = yes Volume Retention = 6 Days Storage = backup01_FileStorage_data1 Maximum Volume Jobs = 1 Label Format = backup01_ } Pool { Name = backup01_Pool_Inc Pool Type = Backup Next Pool = LTO2_Pool Recycle = yes AutoPrune = yes Volume Retention = 6 Days Storage = backup01_FileStorage_data1 Maximum Volume Jobs = 1 Label Format = backup01_ } Pool { Name = LTO2_Pool Pool Type = Backup Recycle = yes AutoPrune = yes Volume Retention = 4 weeks Storage = backup01_LTO2 Maximum Volume Jobs = 5 Recycle Current Volume = yes } Job { Name = "backup01_Basic" JobDefs = "DefaultJob" Client = backup01 FileSet = "Unix_Basic" Schedule = "backup01_Backup" Pool = backup01_Pool_Full Full Backup Pool = backup01_Pool_Full Incremental Backup Pool = backup01_Pool_Inc } Schedule { Name = "backup01_Backup" Run = Level=Full sat at 21:00 Run = Level=Incremental mon-fri at 21:00 Run = Level=VirtualFull sat at 02:00 } Is this Correct? Will the incrementals be included into the vbackup? And how could I implement an VolumeToCatalog verify for the Tape backup? I think I have to create a verify job for every backup job and schedule it with a higher priority a short time after the VirtualFull. Or am I wrong? If you need more information, let me know. I can also send you the whole config, but it's pretty long with over 900 lines.
