I have a storage policy for one shot backups to Tape.
The tape robot being used doesn’t have a lot of free tapes, and our other robot has a lot more free tapes.
So I am trying to make a secondary copy to transfer all that data to the other DC and to then promote the secondary copy to primary.
The transfer of data works, but the option to promote is greyed out.
When trying with the promotetoprimary.xml, it gives me this error:
A copy Dependent on a Global Secondary Copy Policy cannot be promoted to a Primary Copy.
I don’t understand what this means.
I also don’t know how to resolve this.
