Hello,
Running D2D2T backups using Backup Exec 2010 R3. One of our requirements is that we do a month-end archive of certain data (email & file shares). I have the robotic library set up as one large partition, so all of the duplication jobs can wri...
We are running Backup Exec 2010 R3, currently running D2D2T with two standalone LTO 5 drives. The duplicate jobs take a long time and require too much manual intervention swapping tapes. We just purchased a tape library with two LTO 6 drives. We want...
I recently started replacing our 3 year old LTO3 media as we have been getting Hard Write errors on some of the tapes. The new tapes have the same bar code as the old tape for each slot, so as not to confuse the people who change the tapes when I'm n...

Found my own solution. Since I hate when people don't follow up on their threads if they find a solution, I'm sharing it here.
I ended up just using a couple of my standalone drives and every month I redirect the Full job to those two drives and I h...
Hmmm. Not really seeing how to do this. I tried copying my policy so I would have a policy to test with and then I set up a duplicate job that ran after my usual duplicate job. This second duplicate job targeted another partition using my archive med...
Regarding deleting my other post - I did not do that. Must have been a moderator. I could not find it and when I clicked the link in the email notification, it came back as a bad link.
Thanks for your reply, pkh. I have already created a Media Set that is set to Keep Data Forever. What I'm struggling with is how to set up the policy to duplicate the sets from the last Full backup of the month. Any input on that?
Thanks!
There are append settings as well as overwrite protection settings. You probably have the append settins configure such that the tape is not full, but you can no longer append to it, so Backup Exec uses the next tape.Which begs the question - why 1 y...
