NB 5.1 MP3 W2K Master & Media servers. I've got a couple clients that write their primary copy to disk. There are a couple different policies that do this. We've got an early am off-site requirement that precludes waiting until we run our am vault eject profiles to do the duplication.
So, what we've done is create a policy that calls for/runs a vault profile that runs the duplication from disk to tape. It is scheduled to ensure it will run after the jobs that write to disk have completed. We will be keeping the tapes off site longer than the job history is maintained in the activity monitor. The issue I've identified is that since the policy does not write to the tape (it's the vault process that actually writes to tape), the recovery report does not show what tape was used for the policy/client. The duplication job will show the tape(s) used in the activity monitor until they roll off. I thought to narrow it down by using a unique volume pool for those jobs, but it still wouldn't identify what tape you needed for a specific policy client, and if we increase the number of policies/clients being backed up to disk in this manner, the unique pool method would be too much to sort through. My question is: How can we generate a report to be included with the off-site tapes to identify the tapes created by the duplication process as described above? Thanks, Kent C.
