Dell NetWorker 19.9 Administration Guide

Cloning example

In this example, a backup of a client with three data drives creates three save sets. These save sets are stored on a volume that is accessible through Storage Node A. Once a cloning action occurs, the copies of these save sets are sent to eligible devices in the clone pool on Storage Node B.

In this figure:

• A client performs a backup of three data drives to Storage Node A. NetWorker creates three save sets, one save set for each data drive.
• A clone operation reads the data from the volumes on Storage Node A, and then copies the save sets to Storage Node B.
