duplicate job, change overwrite protection

[Ross_McKerchar]

I have a "duplicate backup sets" job that is set to run after my main backup, it copies the job onto a removable hdd.

The problem is, the duplicate operation also retains the media's overwrite protection period. I dont want this to happen: I simply want the latest job duplicate to overwrite the previous job duplicate, no matter what. At the moment this isn't happening and the disk is filling up with multiple jobs worth of duplicates.

Any suggestions?

Hello,

Normally duplicate backup jobs follow the same configuration as the original backup job. You cannot change the mediaset properties just for the duplicate backup job.
