multiple backup copy jobs

[unluckynoob]

hi,

quick question, the gui seems to allow for multiple 'backup copy jobs' per 'backup job', is this a supported config?

if this is ok, are there any gotcha's I should be aware of?

I have a requirement to create two different offsite backup copies, with different retention policies for a single backup job.

thanks for any help

Yes, you can create several backup copy jobs that will use the same backup job as a source. Just keep in mind, when doing this, that the job that starts copying at the moment when another job is underway (and hence, backup files are locked), will wait for the backups to be available.
