Backup Copy Repository to Re-Seed Primary?

Post by jlester »

This is the opposite of the question that is typically asked about seeding a backup copy repository. We lost a drive on one of our NAS units. During the rebuild, another failed. For some reason, the volume got corrupted (it shouldn't have, but that's a different problem). Is it possible to use a backup copy job's repository to re-seed the primary repository? If not, can we just do a new active full of each job to the primary and still maintain the recovery points of the backup copy repository?

Yep, it should be possible to map backup jobs to files created by backup copy jobs. In other words, you can use backups that are left to recreate primary repository. Thanks.

As well as map newly created backup copies to the existing chains.
