Hi Simon
I suspect you are right but another reason to move to hot catalog backups is

What about them? NetBackup *never* puts different retentions on a tape
unless you force it to with the MULTIPLE_RETENTIONS_PER_MEDIA
KISS = Keep It Simple, Stupid!
It's easy to over-manage NetBackup, because it lets you. I recommend
that you keep things simple, and deviate from the simple when it's
evident that you should.
If the NetBackup pool contains all of your assigned tapes and the
Scratch pool contains all of
WOW lots of threads...
I didn't read them all but I do have a suggestion.
Place tapes that have had a read/write errors or were frozen into a temporary pool until they can be checked out.
The pool name - cesspool

My feeling is that not many shops mix retentions on a tape volume. I
don't, so maybe that's why. ;-)
If you decide
I think that my words have been taken out of context. I know you cant

people use 1 media pool for all backups. From that i would assume they

I don't believe your words were taken out of context, as even
re-reading your follow-up, I'm interpretting your words the same way.
I think you are misunderstanding what netbackup does...it

Agree. IMO simple for small to medium sized solutions is cumulative
incremental backups daily and full backups at weekends and at month end
with an offsite daily if required. This then defines sensibly you should
have 4 different retentions..
dailys 1 to 2 weeks retention. Reason: whats the point
I know exactly how it works im afraid and was posing the question to
people who use 1 tape pool.
What about mixed retentions?
To explain further i meant what about having different retentions on the
same media which you would need to turn on in order to have full backups
incremental etc to use
Correct. Unless you have mix retentions on media set which i think
everyone has agreed is a bad idea.
Your description below uses 4 tapes ( if one tape per backup is used )
which are all associated to the same volume pool.
IMO this is bad practice.
I do think it explains it well to the person

Hi all,
What is best practice with regards to Volume Pools ?
We are thinking of using a single Volume Pool for all of our data tapes.
Is it good practice to use the Netbackup Volume pool for this situation ?
