Howdy,

=20

I was wondering if anyone could give me some suggestions

on cloning using Veritas Netbackup (Solaris).

=20

Currently, I utilize the vaulting option to make a copy of

Off-site incrementals so that each morning when I come=20

in, I just remove the clone from the library and send it

off-site.

=20

However, We want to be able to do the same thing with

a full backup which occurs on the weekend. I tried setting

up a vaulting job, but it took forever. The vault job was

taking more time that just doing another full-backup.

=20

What are my options? I have 4 SDLT Tape Drives.

I could just do another Full Backup, but then incrementals

won't match with the off-site Full Backup.=20

=20

Thanks....James
