Hello everyone,
I am trying to push the company I work for into retiring Tape Backups and get more into cloud storage. I am working with our Reps for pricing, but I do have one question that I know will come up to a degree. Currently we backup our VM’s over multiple tapes, The jobs do a few VM’s depending on what they do so one job may backup 7-10 VMs and span them over a tape or two. If we point these Aux to the Cloud instead of tape when I go to restore from the Metallic Recovery Reserve will Commvault need to download the entire “tape” of that backup or can it pick what it needs from that one file? Also if it does have to download everything where does that get stored while its restoring. The reason I ask is if I will need to redo my VM backups and just put them all on separate jobs. It may be a simple question but I figured I would ask here about it. Thank you for any info you can give.
