Jobs are copied from the disk-based "Disk1" storage to the "Tape" pool. Incremental backups are using the disk-based storage "Disk". In my opinion parallel jobs should work because incremental and copy jobs both use different storage and pools/volumes
What am I missing? Is it impossible to run other jobs in parallel with a copy job?
Thanks in advance for your help,
Stefan
I have the following pool configuration:
# Disk Full Backup Pool
Pool {
Name = Disk.Full
Pool Type = Backup
# Defines the pool to copy to.
Next Pool = Tape.Full
Recycle = yes
AutoPrune = yes
Volume Retention = 3 months
Volume Use Duration = 1 month
Label Format = Disk.Full-
Maximum Volumes = 6
Storage = Disk1
}
# Disk Incremential Backup Pool
Pool {
Name = Disk.Inc
Pool Type = Backup
Recycle = yes
AutoPrune = yes
Volume Retention = 1 month
Volume Use Duration = 1 month
Label Format = Disk.Inc-
Maximum Volumes = 4
Storage = Disk
}
# Tape Full Backup Pool
Pool {
Name = Tape.Full
Pool Type = Backup
Recycle = yes
AutoPrune = yes
Volume Retention = 3 months
# Volume Use Duration is 7 days because the tape is only used to copy
# all full backup jobs to it and afterwards its not needed anymore
Volume Use Duration = 7 days
Label Format = Tape.Full-
Maximum Volumes = 4
Storage = Tape
}
The copy job copies the latest full backups from the pool Disk.Full to the pool Tape
# The copy job should run after the monthly full backup therefore priority is set to 15
Job {
Name = "Copy-LastFull-Tape"
Type = Copy
Pool = Disk.Full
Schedule = "MonthlyCycleAfterBackup"
# For a Copy Job, the parameters “Client” and “FileSet” don’t matter at all.
# They are just there because the “Job” entry requires them.
Client = backupserver-fd
FileSet = "Linux"
Messages = Standard
# Select the last full backup of each client from Disk.Full pool to copy to tape
Selection Type = SQLQuery
Selection Pattern = "SELECT MAX(Job.JobId) FROM Job, Pool WHERE Job.Level = 'F' and Job.Type = 'B' and Job.JobStatus = 'T' and Pool.Name = 'Disk.Full' and Job.PoolId = Pool.PoolId GROUP BY Job.Name ORDER BY Job.JobId;"
# Run after main and catalog backup
Priority = 15
}
Defined storage
# Disk storage (internal disks)
Storage {
Name = Disk
Address = IPAddress
SDPort = 9103
Password = "PASSWORD"
Device = Disk
Media Type = File
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 8
}
# Disk storage (internal disks)
Storage {
Name = Disk1
Address = IPAddress
SDPort = 9103
Password = "PASSWORD"
Device = Disk1
Media Type = File1
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 8
}
# Tape drive connected to backup server
Storage {
Name = Tape
Address = IPAddress
SDPort = 9103
Password = "PASSWORD"
Device = Tape
Media Type = LTO-4
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 8
}
