No, Vault can certainly send duplicates off site. In fact, prior
to the advent of SLPs, most people duplicated images within Vault and sent
those off site. (I've always theoretically preferred to send my originals
off-site and promote my duplicates to be short on-site retention, which Vault
can also do, but I've never walked into an environment already set up that
way.) Just create the Vault within the robot where the duplicates are and
specify the appropriate limitations (probably by volume pool in your case),
skip the duplication step, perform the catalog backup (really, please, perform
the catalog backup), and eject and generate reports.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] NBU 6.5.3 Vault Query
Hi All
Am I correct in saying that vault can only vault backups and not
duplications?
I.e. I am busy implementing a VTL(with NDMP functionality) and
utilising NBU Lifecycle management polices.
As the VTL is equipped with NDMP Version 4 we are able to zone in
physical drives on the backend of the VTL and pretty much setup NDMP STU’s to
write to these physical devices. The reason for this approach is that when we
duplicate an image from a VTL volume to a physical volume the VTL becomes the
data mover.
I now want to setup a process on the volume group that the physical
backend volumes reside in, however these volumes are filled with duplications
and not backups.
I am guessing , as new to vault, that you cannot vault
duplicated images?
Any suggestions would be helpful.
Regards
David Clooney

Hi,
We are planning to upgrade our media server from 5.0.5 to6.5.2
Please provide the necessary steps that we should follow while doing this
and also looking for a solution to check media inconsistency.
We are also planning to attach a lto4 library with this.
So ,does this library can read lto2 tapes if we need to restore something.
Thanks!
Pranav
