Backup Duplicate job placing files on several different disks unexpectedly
I have backup jobs configured as follows:
1. A backup to disk job that backs up to a local hard drive (D:/backup)
2. A duplicate job that duplicates the backup from #1 to a device pool containing 3 USB drives (F:/backup, G:/backup, H:/backup)
The issue is with #2 above. I looked at the job log and it lists the backup files created by the job (B2D00000XX), there are about 10 of them. The job log says they all went to G:/backup but when I look at G:/backup, it isn’t true. The files in the job log are actually scattered across D:/backup, and G:/Backup). Why would one duplicate job put files in 2 places, especially since D:/Backup is NOT part of the device pool that is the target of this backup job?
