Best practise in configuring backup to RDX

Hello,

We have an RDX device installed on SBS 2011. As we cannot use the build-in backup from Microsoft, we are now using backup exec 2010. I created five backup to disk folders, for each day, and we are changing the disks every day.

What are the best practises in this kind of configuration, and would you suggest something ?

Thank you,
Daniel

Not sure why you change the disks every day
You can get backup five days a week on five B2D folders
I mean u need to configure 5 B2D jobs with weekly once schedule (Monday to Friiday)
Then probably raise this backups to tape once in a week
For next B2D backup, let backup software overwritten the disk

Hello MaheshPM,

We use five disk - one per day. On every disk is stored a full server backup, which is taking more than 60% of the disk. If one of the disk got broken - we have 4 more I hope with valid backups. The disks that we use are 340gb each, so they are not enough for 5 days full backups.
