split jobs between two media servers
- 10 years agoNo. This cannot be done

I agree that it cannot be done with 2 stand-alone media servers with local storage.
But, yes, I suspect that it can be done if you add the ESO license option, but I haven't tried it myself. One of your servers would become the CAS server and one would become a Managed Media Server (MMS). This allows the two servers to share their catalog information. Typically the ESO option is used to share fibre channel tape libraries on a SAN, but I think that it allows data to be restored or duplicated across servers. You may also want or need to add the BE deduplication option license to the server with the disk storage.

...ESO has CASO, SAN SSO (used to share FC tape libraries across SAN-attached servers) and a bunch of other licenses rolled up into 1, so you get it either way.
Thanks!
