Offsite Backup Copy jobs in Ver 12

[Dima P.]

Glad to hear! Thank you for the feedback Andi Kola!

Thank you for brining this function back.
What is with Veeam Agent Backups?
They are still not working for Backup copy as Copy jobs sources.

I've been running all our client sites on Ver 11 due to the removal of BCJ->BCJ functionality in Ver 12. I was very excited to see the new BCJ->BCJ functionality, until I upgraded a site to Ver 12.1.2.172 and found that the new BCJ->BCJ functionality doesn't support using CloudConnect as the destination. This is a scenario that we use heavily (per my original post). Just as well I tried this on one small set of BCJ jobs before converting all BCJ jobs to the new format. Is there a plan to ever address this?

Hello Steve,

This limitation is temporary and will be removed in one of the upcoming releases. Thank you for your post!

Any update on the roadmap for this?

"Repository with rotated drives is not supported when Backup Copy job is used as a source"

Regards,

^^^ Yeah we're still needing this function back... We've scripted copying the files manually but if the backup copies get modified at the same time we're running the script it fails. This is causing us problems. It would be nice to know when the next update with this functionality will be coming.

Hello guys,

Thank you this limitation is on our radar too. Mind me asking what is going to be used as a target for such backup copy job?

[Neturius]

Targets are USB connected hard disks in our case.

Regards,
Peter

Understood. Thank you Peter!

It seems a bit rich to me that you force everyone to update to v12 as you end product support of v11, but at the same time, you haven't put all the required features people are using in the old version into the new version yet.
To add salt to the wound, this particular thread is over a year old, cmon team.

Which features are you referring to here?
