Bootstrap Backup Pool

[quasim0dem]

Due to the recent crash of one of our servers in an "unmanned" location and the incredible amount of effort to get anyone to drive out to rebuild the server, my team has been tasked with the process of backing up bootstrap information to a specific pool on every server we have. We currently are able to get the reports emailed, but I can't figure out a way to just backup bootstraps into their own pool.

Anyone have any ideas?
thanks in advance.

Sure. Simply create a new pool and specifcy "bootstrap" for the save set list.

Usually you would also want to backup the client file index to the same pool.

In a complete server failure, you would need to recover the bootstrap and the indexes, so having them all in the same pool would be helpful.
