Agent and Copy Job

[neilmurphy65]

Hi All.

Is it possible to use the Linux agent (or the Windows Agent when it goes GA) to backup to a VBR repository and then configure a copy job to copy the backup files to a secondary location (disk or tape)?

Cheers,
Neil.

Hi,

Yes, it is possible, however you cannot mix VM and Agent backups within the same BCJ.

Thank you

[neilmurphy65]

Thanks for that. Does this also count for Endpoint?

[PTide]

Yes, you cannot place Windows and Linux backups in the same BCJ either.

Sorry, I meant is it possible to configure a BCJ for and Endpoint backup targeted to a VBR repository? I'm specifically interested in Windows agents.

Sorry to be a stickler but I have a partner who is looking to do this on a customer site and since the Windows Agent is still in Beta he needs to know if he can use Endpoint as a stopgap.

Yes, it is possible since Endpoint 1.5. Windows Agent job can be used as a source for BCJ as well.
