Hi
Can anyone tell me if it's possible to set up Backup Exec to duplicate the same backup job to two different sites?
I have a client with three data centres and wants to duplicate backup jobs from site 1 to both sites 2 & 3. The backup jobs at site 2 he wants to duplicate to sites 1 & 3 etc etc.
I've done optimised duplication to a single site before and I know NetBackup can be configured to duplicate to multiple sites but not sure if BackupExec can.
many thanks in advance

Sure. Why not? Just add another duplicate stage to a different target. Take Site 1. Your first duplicate stage will target the dedup folder on Site 2 and then the next duplicate stage will target the dedup folder on Site 3. Both of these duplicate stages use the dedup folder on Site 1 as the source.
