I have a question, can we restore the SAP HANA database that we have copied to the DC tape and then physically move this tape to DRC, restore it using the DRC media agent and the tape library in DRC?

Hello @tam 

This should be fine as long as you re-associate the tape to the DRC library.

Hello Collin,

 

sorry maybe for the explanation is still not clear.
so here we have 2 tape library with the same type at each site, the plan is for the physical tapes to be moved to the drc site for restore purposes. is it possible like this?

Thankyou,

Hello @tam 

Yes it is possible, but it is not possible to move tapes between libraries without re-associating them to the destination library. Without doing this, the software will recognize the tape is in the wrong library.

Also, the LTO versions between the source and destination libraries must be compatible for the data to be read.

 

Thank you,
Collin
