Hi, been a while since I posted on here, but here you go:
I have just installed a new storage node on a remote site.
it is succesfully backing up 8 clients on a LTO2 device.
The index information comes across our private WAN to our main backup server.
My savegroups are set to automatically clone.
The backup server uses IBM 3590 drives (not the issue)
herein lies the problem:
When the remote clients have finished backing up and cloning, the backup group WAITS until both of my IBM 3590 drives are free to backup the indexes on the server.
is there any way I can make the indexes for these remote clients back up to the LTO2 device instead of the 3590, so my savegroups are not hanging around for ages waiting for free tapes?
TIA
