Hey All,
I am attempting to configure a copy job to create an set of backup tapes I can ship offsite but everytime a job starts, the base offsite job sits waiting for the Tape resource, and the child copy job sites waiting for the File resource…
it seems like they are deadlocking each other but I can not figure out why??
I have two pools configured containing tapes, the Tape pool and the Offsite pool, all source backup jobs are in the File pool. I have a migration job that moves things from the File pool to the Tape pool and it all works as expected, I
am sure there is something in my offsite pool configuration that is wrong but I just can’t figure out what.
Any pointers from all you guru’s would be greatly appreciated!
Relevant configs:
