Backup to external hard drive

Terry_Fisher

Hello,

I want to perform a backup to an external hard drive that is connected via USB port. When I try to create a job, the only options I have for backup destination are the tape drive and all hard drives. Where do I go to select the USB drive?

Thanks,

TFISHER

Hello,

Refer these technotes:
Title : How to create a new removable Backup-to-Disk folder in VERITAS Backup Exec (tm) 9.x and 10.x for Windows Servers

Title: How to create a Backup-to-Disk folder in Backup Exec 9.x and 10.0 and configure a Backup-to-Disk job

Follow the first one to create a B2d using a disk attached via USB port since it falls under the category of Removal B2d folders. The second one is informational.
