Hi All,

We are configuring GFS disk to disk to tape (different tape media). Please find the below requirement.

Requirement 1: first storage policy will configure daily Inc and weekly full for first disk keep 7 days 

Requirement 2: first disk daily Inc and weekly Full go to auxiliary copy of second disk keep 28 days

Requirement 3: second disk daily Inc auxiliary copy of daily tape media keep 28 days

Requirement 4: second disk weekly Full auxiliary copy of weekly tape media keep 28 days

Requirement 5: second disk Full (end of month) auxiliary copy of monthly tape media keep 12 months

Requirement 6: second disk Full (end of year) auxiliary copy of yearly tape media keep 2 years


Refer above, should I create as below?

(Requirement 1) create Primary_Full storage policy with Primary_Inc Incremental storage policy first disk keep 7 days

(Requirement 2) Primary_Inc storage policy create auxiliary copy select All Backup to second disk keep 28 days

(Requirement 2) Primary_Full storage policy create auxiliary copy select All Backup to second disk keep 28 days

(Requirement 3) Primary_Inc storage policy create auxiliary copy select All Backup from second disk to daily tape media keep 28 days

(Requirement 4) Primary_Full storage policy create auxiliary copy select All Backup from second disk to weekly tape media keep 28 days

(Requirement 5) Primary_Full storage policy create selective copy from second disk end of month Full to monthly tape media keep 365 days

(Requirement 6) Primary_Full storage policy create selective copy from second disk end of year Full to yearly tape media keep 730 days

Hi @Chinchilla ,

 

Everything would be selective  copy except for requirement 1 and 2

 

For requirement 3. we do not have selective copy to copy only Incremental job. Selective copy copies only full/synthetic full jobs, therefore you must be create a synchronous copy or selective copy to copy only fulls.

 

Requirement 3: second disk daily Inc auxiliary copy of daily tape media keep 28 days

 

Rest everything looks good.

Hi Suleman,

 

Could Command Center create above all? I did not found the Primary_Full storage policy enable select Primary_Inc Incremental storage policy in Command Center.

 

Best regards
