Subject: [Veritas-bu] Newbie to Netbackup using VTL


Hi everyone,

I'm new using VTL with netbackup.

I was hoping anyone here already implemented such a setup in their
current environment and hope share your general setup plan? I'm now
planing for such a setup and only have experience using normal tape
libraries.

I understand that VTL able to create multiple tape libraries and tape
drives. If i'm cloning data that already backup in VTL to the actual
tape library, what is the common practice? script? netbackup? 

Let's say if i have 100 clients and i do not use multiplexing and
instead creating 100 virtual tape drives, does it mean that i need 100
LTO3 tape when i do cloning? Will the activity monitor display backup
failure from VTL to the normal tape library?

Any help is much appreciated. Thank you in advance
