I have 2 IBM tape drives i want to backup to seperate tape media
for example,
Monday full backup to Media 1
Tuesday full backup to media 2
Wednesday full backup to media 3
And I want this cycle to go like this.
all monday backups to media 1 all tuesday backups to media 2 and so on
Is it possible to take tape backup like this
Hello
Unfortunately it is not possible to automatic this behavior. You can have different drive pools which use separate scratch pools, but you cannot force a specific backup to use a specific tape base on a specific day of the week. You could potentially load the desired media manually but we still may get some cross-over due to indexing.
Thank you,
Collin
