Quarterly tape backup

Post by JTT »

Hi

Currently we are using one tape job with two media pools, incremantals on wordays and fulls on weekend.
Can i use the same backup job for GFS pool to have Quarterly backups or do i understand correctly, that i need to create a separate GFS media pool and also a new tape job?

Hi JTT

You cannot change your current "non-GFS" job to a tape job with a GFS media pool.
A new tape job and a GFS media pool will be required. For the GFS media pool, enable Daily, weekly and quarterly media sets.
You must use the same media pool for the daily media sets. But you can configure in the advanced settings for GFS media sets which Tapes will be used for the daily tape sessions.

Best,
