Hi guys,
        
I just prepared a config for a customer.
Here is the situation:
*1 LTO2 device, 2 local raid 5 devices as storage
*I want create a full backup for every client + incremental through the
rest of the week. Both, incremental and full backups go to the disk
storage, but to different pools
*I want to create a virtual full backups offsite storage to tape. This
happens once a week, always for a multiple jobs.

There is not enough disk storage to keep multiple full backups. So the
vbackup to tape is pretty important.

I specified the Next Pool Directive on the Full and Incremental Pools
like this:

Pool {
  Name = backup01_Pool_Full
  Pool Type = Backup
  Next Pool = LTO2_Pool
  Recycle = yes
  AutoPrune = yes
  Volume Retention = 6 Days
  Storage = backup01_FileStorage_data1
  Maximum Volume Jobs = 1
  Label Format = backup01_
}

Pool {
  Name = backup01_Pool_Inc
  Pool Type = Backup
  Next Pool = LTO2_Pool
  Recycle = yes
  AutoPrune = yes
  Volume Retention = 6 Days
  Storage = backup01_FileStorage_data1
  Maximum Volume Jobs = 1
  Label Format = backup01_
}

Pool {
  Name = LTO2_Pool
  Pool Type = Backup
  Recycle = yes
  AutoPrune = yes
  Volume Retention = 4 weeks
  Storage = backup01_LTO2
  Maximum Volume Jobs = 5
  Recycle Current Volume = yes
}

Job {
  Name = "backup01_Basic"
  JobDefs = "DefaultJob"
  Client = backup01
  FileSet = "Unix_Basic"
  Schedule = "backup01_Backup"
  Pool = backup01_Pool_Full
  Full Backup Pool = backup01_Pool_Full
  Incremental Backup Pool = backup01_Pool_Inc
}

Schedule {
   Name = "backup01_Backup"
   Run = Level=Full sat at 21:00
   Run = Level=Incremental mon-fri at 21:00
   Run = Level=VirtualFull sat at 02:00
}


Is this Correct? Will the incrementals be included into the vbackup?

And how could I implement an VolumeToCatalog verify for the Tape backup?
I think I have to create a verify job for every backup job and schedule
it with a higher priority a short time after the VirtualFull. Or am I
wrong?

If you need more information, let me know. I can also send you the whole
config, but it's pretty long with over 900 lines.

Kind Regards

Julian
