I have a DPM server with several protection groups going to a large RAID array. Instead of separate tape backup job for each protection group, I would like a single tape backup job to run and backup all the replicas at once (spanning several tapes).
The tape library has the capacity, however DPM wants to backup each protected group individually to specific tapes and the tape management is screwy. I seem to only get one good tape backup then they all fail afterwards because specific tapes are not available (due to swapping tapes daily for each backup). The goal is to have an offsite tape DAILY of the DPM replicas. Lacking the ability with a single DPM server, would it be possible to do the above scenario with a second DPM server to protect the first DPM server? Thanks.
