hey guys,
was wandering if that is possible.
did some readings on schedule/job/jobdefs resources, but still not sure
if this is possible. however there may be a better way to do this, so i
am open to suggestions.
basically we have 35 clients to backup. schedule as follows:
- weekly on sunday - full backup and these tapes go off site (this is
in rotation)
- daily we run incremental
problem at hand, if user want to restore something from last week, i
need the tapes that went off site back, so i can restore data.
workaround at this time
- weekly on sunday - full backup and these tapes go off site (this is
in rotation)
- weekly on monday - full backup and these tapes stay
- daily we run incremental
however given that amount of full data backup is over 3 tb, it is
getting pain and long to run a full backup twice.
thus, i was hoping that i can do a full backup weekly (these tapes go
off site) and one full backup once every 3 months or so and then run
incremental daily.
this way i can restore data without requesting tapes back from off site
vendor.
Why i started with "specific client to back up on a schedule" is that i
could define client1, client2, client3.... and also client1-b,
client2-b, client3-b (essentially these 1 and 1b, 2 and 2b are the same
clients, but they treated as different in the database during the
backup, so i can do 1,2,3 weekly and 1b,2b.3b monthly with incrementals
based off the full 1b,2b,3b and not 1,2,3.
incrementals are based on last full backup. thus i need some set of full
backup in house and incremental that i can use to restore data.
am i twisting this in a wrong way ?? is there a better way to do this?
thanks
