Hi, sounds ok first day 1) 2)backup primary storage pool to copy pool and mark volumes within copy pool as offsite 3) 4)
next day 1) 2) + 3)depends on the number of volumes you have( you could send them offsite daly and get them back weekly ) 4) 5) 6) after the dbbackups it would also be nice to have a backup volhist and a backup devconfig for DR. herfried Burak Demircan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>@VM.MARIST.EDU> on 07.03.2002 10:48:33 Please respond to "ADSM: Dist Stor Manager" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent by: "ADSM: Dist Stor Manager" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc: Subject: offsite backup Hi, How can you manage offsite backups without DRM? I have just ideas in mind but I have lack of experience. Is the following right way first day 1) backup the nodes 2) backup copy pools to offsite copy pools 3) backup the database 4) take database backup and copy pools to offsite 5) expire the database backups previous than x days. (for example x=7) next day 1) backup the nodes 2) return some copy copy pool volumes that are not filled as FULL 3) return expired old database volume of the day x+1 as scratch volume 3) backup copy pools to offsite copy pools 4)backup the database 5) take database backup and copy pools to offsite 6) expire the database backups previous than x days. (for example x=7) .....etc. **************************************************************************** The information contained in this transmission, which may be confidential and proprietary, is only for the intended recipients.
