    For BE 2010, all backup sets, tape or disk, are controlled by media sets. You need to change the OPP of the media set which contains the backup sets

Hello,

thanks for the answers, so if I want to avoid existing backup set to be overwritten the only choice is change expiring date of the media that belongs to the backup set.

I was not clear, usually I use BES 2015 but in this case I have the issue on an old BES 2010 installation.

The backup is on NAS.

It's correct ?
