Solved!
Go to SolutionTwo Savegroup backups for same saveset
I have a client with a mount point like /srv/onetick
Now I want to take backups on two different tapes everytime it does an incremental. If I use a client side save ( with -I) ,
it works of course.
Wth a normal automated savegroup, when I ran tick1 savegroup, it runs correctly and backs up new files.
But when I run same client/filespace with another group tick2, it runs as if nothing has changed and
doesnt backup any files.
I want the same set of (changed) files to two different tape pools.Any ideas?
Hi,
You should use cloning to make a copy of the saveset to another pool. You'll find details of Cloning in Chapter 9 of the Administration Guide.

Yes..:-)..but unfortunately I have TS2900 ( single tape drive) and need dual drives to clone. Although I am trying to
get an upgraded library...until then I have to use some hack...if possible
A client side save using "-I" works ( file list derived from a "find"), but then it's not completely automated...even with cron. It needs to make sure the tape media is available etc...

That's an good idea..Let me try it out for a couple of savegroups and see....
To make sure I didnt do too many level 1 backups, I created a convoluted schedule. This is still a testing phase. But for anyone interested, here's my new schedule.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
create name: level schedule;type: nsr schedule;period: week;action: s 3 4 5 6 7 s
print name: level schedule
update override: 9 Sunday every week, 1 Saturday every 3 weeks, 8 Saturday every week
