I have used ITC to create a second copy of the backup. The primary tape is no longer available. How can a restore from the secondary be handled. Is this automatic within netbackup of does the secondary have to be made the primary.
Depends what you mean by the primary is not avalible any more. If the primary does not exist anymore and the system knows that then the copy will be come the primary.
From the sysadmin guide for 4.5
When the primary expires, a different copy automatically becomes primary. (The one
chosen is the one with the smallest copy number. If the primary is copy 1, when it
expires, copy 2 becomes primary. If the primary is copy 5, when it expires, copy 1
becomes primary.)
