Difference between Backup Copy and Secondary Destination

Post by unsichtbarre »

I am setting up backup jobs and I would like to meet the requirement of having 2 weeks (14 days) locally and off-site.

My question is this: Is there any practical difference between configuring a "Secondary Destination" or a Backup Copy job which keeps 14 Restore Points?

Nope, those are just two ways leading you to backup copy job creation wizard. Thanks.

When you configure secondary destination, you actually link backup copy job to the original backup job, so this is actually the same functionality.
