Backing up File to Tape

[Supraman]

Hello Guys,

I am not sure if this is normal or by design but are we suppose to be seeing backup jobs that are base on File to Tape completed under backup & replication> Backups > Tape? or would it be normal not to see them at all.

Hi,

It does not matter what kind of files you copy with File to Tape job, even if you copy .vbms and .vbks they will be treated as regular files, not backups, thus won't show up in "Backups" GUI sub-tree. You can find all Tape related info in "Tape Infrastructure" node.

Thank you.

Thanks for the information Ptide.

And if you're willing to restore an individual file that has been previously archived to tapes, check the "Files" node. Thanks.
