Auto Restore

[Eric_Abrams]

Can you setup VBE to run a restore job of a test file everytime right after the backup is completed? Would like to test the same file from every backup job.

Not as of v9. the way that it is written, the tape volume must be in the catalog when the restore job is created.

I've heard that v10 offers this tho, but haven't seen the product yet.

There is no such feature in Backup Exec which will initiate restore job operation immediately after the backup completes. Yes, you can always schedule a job. Backup Job completion and time that takes to complete a successful job depends on the type of data that you are trying to Backup.


you can refer the following technote link mentioned below to carry out the restore job operation.

We hope this helps.

Then how can you setup a repeating restore job of the same file from what ever tape is in the drive?

Agan, there is no way in BackupExec as it is written

If are adept at scripting, you could probably do something like this with BEMCMD, the CLI for BackupExec.

I am not adept to scripting. But thanks for the help.
