Disk Staging - Request for restore advice
Hi,
Firstly, I am running Netbackup 5.1 MP3 in a Windows 2003 Server environment.
I am currently testing disk staging and having a few problems with restores\getting
my head around it.
Currently we keep our tapes on a 4 weekly rotation, however the disk copy
will only be there for one week due to the size of the NAS. I simulated
a restore job by deleting the disk copy thinking/hoping it would resort to
tape, but it failed. See below:
16:47:21 29/11/2005: Restore Started
16:47:21 (17330.001) Restoring from image created 29/11/2005 04:06:09

16:47:31 (17330.001) INF - TAR RESTORED 0 OF 0 FILES SUCCESSFULLY
16:47:31 (17330.001) INF - TAR KEPT 0 EXISTING FILES
16:47:31 (17330.001) INF - TAR PARTIALLY RESTORED 0 FILES
16:47:33 (17330.xxx) INF - Status = the restore failed to recover the requested
files.
With my current setup does it mean the tapes which are kept offsite are useless
after orginal backup is ovewritten, surely this defeats the point in disk
staging?
Thanks in advance
