Hello,
I am currently using a trial version of Symantec Exec 12.5 to copy data from RAID to Tape..
How can I do two backups in parallel of the same source data?
The solution proposed for Backup Exec 12.5 in the Help is first to make one tape copy, and then use this to make a second tape copy. However, this is time consuming and for my application backup time is an issue.
Is it possible to do backup with Backup Exec "on the fly"? For example, I am writing data to RAID1_myworkdir, and as each file is completely copied over to the RAID the backup SW copies this to Tape. Possibly what I need to do is start a backup job once a certain number of files exist on the RAID. And once this backup is complete do an additional incremental backup job to backup the additional files. And ideally all these backup jobs should be writing to two different devices in parallel.
Any advice here would be most appreciated.
Cheers!
