Pointing specific tape drives with in a library to a specific drive share

[jacobymt]

I have a four drive tape library assigned to Netbackup. I would like to take a single tape drive within that library and point that tape drive to a specific drive mount on my server and only have that one tape drive be used to backup that share. Is there a way to do this without having to use the whole tape library and all drives assigned within it?

Example:

W:\ -> Drive 1

X:\ --> Drive 2

Y:\ --->Drive 3

Z:\ ---->Drive 4

 

All at once using one Policy and using one media pool.

Best regards.

Yes configure your STU with 1 multiplexing and your Policy with Multiplestreams, this will create one job per drive under your clients and will assign this job to every single drive under your STU, you cannot control which drive will be using each File System or Disk Drive, but will work.

Four storage units, one drive in each STUnit, assign stunit to a policy, four policies, one per disk drive. That'll do it.
