Hi,
Yes you can run more that one scanner for different drives at
the same time.
Great!
But Make sure that you have enough drives for a backup to
run in case it a backup is kicked off before the completion of the
scanner.
In my situation, this won't be a problem, as these drives are marked as
"READ ONLY" in the device configuration. I only use this storage node for
restores from old tapes (we now use LTO drives, as backup drives)
What happens if you don't have those set to read-only? What would
prevent the backups from using a drive that scanner is accessing? Is the
scanner command outside the purview of running save processes or
recovers? Would there be a collision? I'm just asking for clarity so I
have a better understanding of the dangers.
Since I don't/can't backup to these drives, they also don't use a storage
node license. :-)
Why would this not use a license? I thought read or write would use a
license?
