Is the data domain a DSU for netbackup? When you say you're backing up to it, can you give more details? -M

The source image can be Data Domain and the target can be tape. If you know scripting it should be fairly easy to create a script that calls this command. Type "man bpduplicate" for more details on the command. Look at the storage unit options for setting source and destination. ________________________________ From: veritas-bu-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu [mailto:veritas-bu-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu] On Behalf Of Hickman, Tony Sent: Monday, March 09, 2009 10:27 AM To: veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Subject: [Veritas-bu] how to copy backups from data domain to tapew/netbackup 6.5 Hi, This is the first time for me using this mailing list. This list was recommended to me by someone and here I am. Here is my current dilemma: We went to using a Data Domain device along with NetBackup 6.5 in late December. We do not have the Vault add-on for NetBackup. Currently all of our backups are going to the Data Domain. Our corporate policy requires us to make quarterly full backups to tape. I am trying to figure out how I can copy backups off of the Data Domain to a tape library. I was told that this can be done with the help of some scripts but, I have not been able to find any information on how to do this or where to even begin though my research attemps. I am hoping someone on this mailing list has experience with this process, or is willing to point me in the right direction. Please reply if you can help and many thanks! B/R, Tony H.
