Producing a 3rd backup copy - Case ID 05392718

[dtallerico-ndi]

We currently produce two copies of all backup job data; one on the local VBR and one in our offsite repository. Is there a convenient way in Veeam to produce a third copy?

Hello dtallerico-ndi,

Yes there is, however, It is not possible to select the copy backup job directly. But it is possible to select the repository, the (second) copy job searches for backup data.
Start the New Backup Copy Job wizard
Here it is required to use Periodic copy (pruning) Copy mode!
On next step, press Add… → From backups...
select the job you want to copy second time.
It is important to do so, otherwise, selected source repository (next step) will be ignored!
Press Source… and select the repository, the first copy job uses as target. This is the repository this copy job will read backups from.

Or if you have an object storage at hand (local or public one), you can leverage Capacity Tier with copy mode enabled. Thanks!
