  • Hi,

     

    Not really clear on your question. You would usually have 1 storage unit for your MSDP, and 1 for ADV DISK if configured. In certain case you might create more for logically segregating backups.

     

    Need more info?

  • Similar concept, the setup is not much different from a typical MSDP or AdvancedDisk configuration. In this order, the setup includes:

    - Setting up storage server
    - Setting up disk pool
    - Setting up disk volume
    - Setting up storage unit (this is probably where your question starts)
    - Setting up backup policy, which you can assign a storage unit, either at policy or schedule level. (Note that different schedule can use a different storage unit)

    Hope this helps.

  • Thanks ,  I am just thinking what is the standard practise while definning pool and what is the current trend

    where most of our backup should be routed
