There are still some things that I'd like to improve, but as it takes the best part of a week to do a full upload, and this also costs money in AWS storage and bandwidth, I haven't played around with it too much. I'd like to separate the jobs so that each month of backups is on a separate group of "tapes", but the current 3 options are confusing.
I have the media pool set to "Do not create, always continue" but this ends up with a mish-mash of backups between the two jobs. "Create new media set for every backup session" seems to use a new tape for every incremental, which is a waste. "Daily at..." is also a waste. I want a new media set created with each full backup, but I can't see an easy way to do this? I must be missing something, because this seems an obvious thing to want to do..?
The only thing I can think of is to create a separate media pool for each backup job, so the one job goes on one set of tapes and the other job on a different set of tapes. This way, mixing of backup tapes is less of a problem.
All ideas welcome
