BExec 12.5 New Backup to Disk folder issue

Hi ,

I have added another backup to disk folder onto one of our media servers, and added it to the device pool for backup to disk.

The issue I am having is that it does not seem to be getting used by current jobs being directed to that pool, even though the other two B2D folders are? is there anything I need to check or have forgotten to do?

Many Thanks

Open the backup policy and save it again.
Had the problem, that I had to just "touch" and save every policy to make the changes work.

best regards

thanks for the reply, but unfortunately it still doesn't appear to work.

Ive got the low disk space threshold set to 20GB on the original 2 B2D folders. will it wait until this is hit before going to the 3rd one?

i just cant understand why multiple jobs will run concurrently on the original folders, but not the newly created one?

Many Thanks

Try creating a new device pool, add this B2D to it, run the backup once on this new device pool and make sure it uses this B2D. Next, add other B2D's also and see if the job still continues to use this B2D or it starts using the other B2D's again.

Thanks
