Is it possible using multiple master servers (vaulting?) to make a secondary
backup in an alternate location?

Example: Assume you do cross-site backups between 2 sites.

siteA -> backup to -> siteB (has its own master)
siteB -> backup to -> siteA (has its own master)

If you have another site, call it siteC, can you do this with vaulting/or some
other way?

siteA -> backup to -> siteB (and also/or later copy to) -> siteC
siteB -> backup to -> siteA (and also/or later copy to) -> siteC

Keep in mind siteA,B,C each have their own master server.

What would be the best way to accomplish this?  This would solve the problem of
a dual site failure.

I already asked this on the veritas-bu mailing list, there are
'workarounds' or ways to do this but not how I had envisioned it.  Is this
possible with TSM?

Or is there a way to make TSM HA so you could have the same master
clustered across 3 different sites so if two went away there would be no
problems?

Justin.
