Backup copy job on external drives

[FedericoCoppola]

Hi all,
I am a new user of Veeam Backup Software and I like it too much.
I need to create this configuration:
- I have four external drive
- I have a nas backup storage where everyday Veeam backups Hyper-V Virtual Machine
- Every X days (for example every 15 days) I must create a copy of backup on this external disks

I have just formatted this drives with different name (disk-001, disk-002...)

Is possible have a pool of disk? Inside this pool I will insert these four hard disks, so Veeam during the backup copy job can choose just one of this disk due to just one will be online and usable.

Thanks for your support!
Federico

Hi Federico,
It is best to use Rotated Drives settings, instead of pooling such drives.

Hi @ Egor Yakovlev,
Yes I have just configured this settings for these four disks.

My doubt is about how manage this four drive due to I can not choose four different repository in a backup copy job.

Thanks for your help
Federico

Hi Federico, you need just a single repository that will be backed by a different disk each 15 days - you will rotate them accordingly and Veeam will recognize them.
