Backup to Disk

I'm backing up my exchange cluster. I implemented a backup to disk then duplicate to tape solution. I have Full backups running overnight as well as differential jobs during the day. How do I set it up such that once the full backups complete the media (Backup to Disk folder) is overwritten. In other words is there a way to overwrite the old .bkf files in that folder?

I noticed the option to limit the size of the Backup to Disk folder, but it says once it reaches that threshold it stops writing to the folder as opposed to overwriting. Is that the case?

Will,

Yes. You can configure Backup-to-Disk folder to be overwritten during the next backup.

Configure the Media Set Properties appropriately by referring the following Technote.

Alternatively Goto backup job properties-->Device and Media under Destination and select "Overwrite Media"

These are the settings that I have been tinkering with. I guess I will continue on this path until I get the desire result. Thanks
