We use SLP for our backups and copies. We create our original backups to a dd670 (2 weeks) and then spin off a copy to our remote dd670 with a different retention period (5 weeks).
The SLP policy allows you to create a second copy to a different destintation right after your backups has completed. That way you have two copies of your data incase your primary site becomes disabled. If you are wanting to only have it on one device at a time, then the VAULT portion of Symantec will allow you to go back a certain amount of time and create a copy on the other destination. You could look into a ddArchiver from data domain. this will move data from an active tier to an archive tier within the same dedupe appliance and your data is on a less expensive tier of disk for the longer term. +---------------------------------------------------------------------- |This was sent by rich.sav...@bcbsne.com via Backup Central. |Forward SPAM to ab...@backupcentral.com. +---------------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ Veritas-bu maillist - Veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu http://mailman.eng.auburn.edu/mailman/listinfo/veritas-bu
