Step by step procedure rotation Scheme
Dear Sir,
I need your help to make a tape backup scheme as follows:
Monday -> next Monday is overwritten
Tuesday -> is overwritten next Tuesday
Wednesday -> is overwritten next Wednesday
Thursday -> is overwritten next Thursday
Friday 1 -> is overwritten on the first Friday of each month
Friday 2 -> It overwrites the second Friday of each month
Friday 3 -> It overwrites the third Friday of each month
Friday 4 -> It overwrites the fourth Friday of each month
Friday 5 -> It overwrites the fifth Friday of each month.
Please indicate the retention times and times of overwriting, and a step by step guide on how to do using backup exec 2012 from the beginning.
Jobs will start @22:00
I appreciate your help.
Best Regards
Samuel
Click on the Storage tab and define two new media sets.
1) For your daily jobs (the first part), set the OPP to 6 days.
2) For your weekly jobs (the second part, Friday), set the OPP to 29 days.
Assuming that you are not appending to the tapes, set the AP to 1 hour in both cases,
In your jobs, when you target the tape storage, specify these media sets.
