Good Day,
we recently migrated a bunch of Backupjobs from primary Copy to Secondary-Copy (Tape) and deleted the jobs in the primary Copy.
Due to a demand from the project, we need the copied backup jobs back in the primary pool.
Unfortunately I am not able to select the storagepool in a thirdcopy in the storagepolicy → create new copy.
Is there a way to migrate the jobs back?
Best regards

You’d have to promote the secondary copy as the primary so the order changes
(1) Secondary-Copy (Tape)
(2) Primary Copy
And then view jobs from the primary copy level and pick jobs to copy. This isn't ideal as any new jobs coming to the storage policy will write to tape, but this is the only way I think you can do it now.
Your problem is that Commvault only allows you to use a Storage Pool once in a Storage Policy.
Solution: Create a new Storage Pool, using the same library and make this your new copy location. This will have a separate DDB, and so your storage footprint will grow.
If you wish to consolidate this third copy with your primary (this will save disk space)
