Need an advise on Backup strategy for long term retention
Hi Team,
I'm relatively new to NetBackup and Need advise on the back strategy for long term retention backups.
Below is our environment:
We have 2 Sites - SITE A and SITE B. Each Site is having One master(physical server), 2 media servers(physical servers) and Data Domain 9410. We are planning to install NetBackup version 10.4.
Our requirement is as below :
-> backing up to Data Domain with 1 month retention
-> replicate the data to Site B from Site A.
-> Duplicate to Azure Blob store for long term retention(13 months retention). This should happen monthly once.
We want the data to be moved to cloud through media server. We don't want this at DD level.
So my question is what backup strategy(backup method) we need to follow in order to move the last 1 month data to Azure Blob store once in a month? We have VADP backups, SQL backups, NDMP Backups and file level backups. We want to move the data cloud monthly once and that copy should have last 1 month. Please suggest.
Also, please suggest any other better ways to achieve this. We don't have Cloud Tier license at Data Domain level, so that is not an option.
