    Give it a try - IMHO it should have worked - I did use SLP with user archive... so...

    The SLP would have the first job operation as 'backup', select the destination storage unit. This is where the first backup would go. Then add a second operation of type 'duplication', again select the storage unit you want the backup to be duplicated to.

    Then for the user backup policy, create a schedule with 'user backup' for the type of backup and select to 'override policy storage selection' and choose the SLP that you created.
