The D2D backup will create one or more BKF files on the target disk drive.
If you then do a standard COPY backup of the BKF file(s), then you would need to restore them , inventory and catalog, then select the file(s) to be restored
If, however, you do a DUPLICATE backup job, BackupExec will create a copy of the backup set on tape, and you can restore directly from tape.
You can use policies to kick off the B2T job when the B2D job finishes, so it is automatic, not manual.Message was edited by:
