Hi All.
My company is moving from Arcserve2k on NT, with a 50 Slot, 3 drive ADIC Scalar100, to NetBackup 4.5, also with a 50 slot, 3 drive Scalar 100. We have a working lab installation that I am learning on, until we are ready to migrate.
Under Arcserve, I create Jobs, assigned them to Media Pools and Device groups, and blank tapes were given labels according to my standards + a date. At the end of the cycle I would export the tapes for offsite storage - usually by looking at the volume names.
Under Netbackup 4.5, I can create policies and schedules, assign them to Volume Pools, but I don't understand how I choose what media to export at the end of the cycle.
The manuals seem to indicate that the only time I can set a media id is when I import it - but at that point, I do not know what job will use it, nor when.
What am I missing?
