Duplicate/copy backup images from tape to tape
Hi, I have gotten a request to duplicate/copy 2 tapes to new tapes. On each tape there's 1 backup set. The backup environment has 2 tape drives attached. I just need a 1-1 copy of tape in order to have an extra copy.
If I right click the backup set I can choose "duplicate" and the process seems pretty straight forward. As destination I can see the library and also partitions and also the tape drives.
If I pick the tape storage pool will the duplication job just take an available scratch tape if I pick the scratch media media set or?
Any input would be much appreciated. Thanks.
