Duplicate backup set

Hi all!

My company just switched to using Backup Exec 10.0 last quarter, We want to replan our backup stragegy by creating a full weekly backup and then duplicate a backup set of this weekly backup.

However, we are afriad that our local C:\ disk space is not sufficient for the job to create a copy before backing up to the tape drive. How and where do I check the path where the duplicate backup set will create before it backups to disk? Is it possible for me to redirect that path???

Please help. Thanks!

By specifying the name of the backup to disk folder in the duplicate job properties!

Thanks Renuka for the reply, but it does not answer my question.

Checked up some other sources that duplicate backup set is not possible with only one tape drive. Found the answer that i'm looking for anyway.
