Rehydrate to tape feasible?
Is it feasible to rehydrate to tape with Backup Exec Appliance? It sounds like the overhead of rehydrating data causes the push to tape unusable.
I must be missing something, why would I want a backup that can't archive off to tape?
What is a good D2D2T approach, avoid the dedup of data?
Hi,
Unless you're using something like Veeam that dedupes to a single file, all other vendors basically would see their deduped data rehydrated when duplicating to tape in order to rebuild those files in a format that is understood by tape.
What you can look at from a dedupe perspective is to duplicate to another dedupe store using optimized dedupe within BE. Check the TNs below:
