Ovewrite protection period and Append Period Settings
I have checked the symantec backup exec with most of the options and gathered many information to make a backup strategy. i plan to use the Partition insted of Media.
Lets say i have 2 partition
Partition1 using Tape 1 and Tape 2
Partition2 using Tape 3,4,5,6 and Tape 7
I use partition 1 to take Differential backup daily, i want to make sure the following things
1. Data can be append for 30 Days and backed up data will be protected for 60 Days,
2. After 30 Days Second Tape must be used to Append Data for another 30 Days
3. After 60 Days it should use the First tape back.
Kindly advise me the correct settings
here are the pictures of settings
- 1. OPP starts from the END of the last job to write to the tape. 2. When a tape is overwritten, all the backup sets on the tape is gone.
