I have backed up a large file server which takes 5 days to backup using the Storage Lifecycle policy with weekly retention where it backups to VTL and then copied off to the tape for offsite. As such the retention is 28 days. Is it possible to extend the retention on the physical tape to 7 years. I do not want to rerun the backup for this 7 yr rentention as it takes long time to backup. I would like to have the VTL image expired in 28 days and keep it on the tape for 7 yrs. Would it be better to have image copied to physical tape first and than use bpexpdate or is there way it can write to physical tape from vtl with new retention.Solved15KViews1like11CommentsCommand Line Administration of netbackup appliance

(without a job PID) is it possible?
I know that by cmd "taskkill /pid 7900 -f" we can cancel a running job by force. But is there a way to cancel a job that has been queued thus without a "job pid" ? There are a lot of jobs that are queued and that I need to cancel by force since they are not responding by the normal way. I normally use this cmd "TASKKILL /PID # -F" for jobs with an assigned PID (process id), but I need to find a way to cancel jobs without pid. if someone could assist me with this, that will be great, cheers thanks10KViews1like2CommentsBest practice “Maximum I/O streams per volume” with Disk Pools

Hello Upgraded from Be2012 to Be2014, and absolutely hate there is no way of manually deleting backup sets. The backup strategy is backup to disk (1 week retention) and immedietly duplicate to tape (4 week retention). The problem I seem to have, is that the expired disk based backup chain thinks the duplicated non expired tape chain is a dependancy, and will not remove itself during the storage grooming process. So the HDD storage is filling up with expired backup chains, that can't be deleted. I would easily remove them manually if I could, but the that functionality has been removed. I will try recreating all the jobs, but its a huge nuisance. Has anyone had the same problem?7.4KViews2likes49Comments
