Hi,<br />
We are using Veritas 9.1. &nbsp;We have a situation where we are spanning 2 tapes now, and I cannot afford a library at this time. &nbsp;I would like to schedule a full backup on Friday, and an incremental on Monday through Thursday, which is not that complex. &nbsp;However, I have an exchange server I am backing up also. &nbsp;How does Veritas handle this? &nbsp;Will I need to setup a second nightly job just for exchange? &nbsp;We have a single sony AIT drive, and no one is around nights to swap tapes. &nbsp;How should I set this job and media up?<br />

Hi,
We are using Veritas 9.1.  We have a situation where we are spanning 2 tapes now, and I cannot afford a library at this time.  I would like to schedule a full backup on Friday, and an incremental on Monday through Thursday, which is not that complex.  However, I have an exchange server I am backing up also.  How does Veritas handle this?  Will I need to setup a second nightly job just for exchange?  We have a single sony AIT drive, and no one is around nights to swap tapes.  How should I set this job and media up?

Veritas full and incremental jobs

The term "Backup" means the methods and processes involved to copy computer data (system data as well as application data) to media other than the ones where the data originally live (disk, tape, optical, cloud). "Restore" in turn means the methods and processes involved in data recovery, i. e., bringing back copied computer data to their original location. Backup/Restore primarily serves as a means of protection against data loss, be it due to disaster, corruption or sabotage. It can also be used for recovering data from an earlier point in time and even for cloning machines or applications. There is a wide variety of backup/restore software available, from expensive commercial products to free or open source tools.

Storage Software

Computer data storage, often called storage or memory, is a technology consisting of computer components and recording media used to retain digital data. In addition to local storage devices like CD and DVD readers, hard drives and flash drives, solid state drives can hold enormous amounts of data in a very small device. Cloud services and other new forms of remote storage also add to the capacity of devices and their ability to access more data without building additional data storage into a device.
