backup to disk until full-then start overwriting
i couldn't really find an answer, so i'm posting a new thread. this shouldn't be that difficult, so i don't know what i'm missing.
i had this working until i upgraded to backup exec 2010, now i can't get it to work.
i have 2 separate backup to disk folders, differential to disk and full to disk, on a mirrored pair of 2tb drives . i have 2 separate jobs that run, the full on sunday and the differential the other 6 days.
i want to use all of the disk space up before i start overwriting any files, but right now the jobs are overwritten every time they run.
what am i missing and what do i have set incorrectly.
my current settings:
job properties is set to append to media, overwrite if no appendable media is available
then media set properties settings are: overwrite protection is set to 0 hours, infinite - allow append
tools/options media management
overwrite protection is set to none
overwrite options is overwrite scratch media before overwriting recyclable media contained in the targeted media
thanks
