Backup to disks fails (acronis backup 11.5 Advanced for linux server- Redhat Linux server 6.5)

Thread needs solution

Hi,

We have configured & scheduled acronis backup 11.5 advanced for daily full backup of server to hp tape autoloader. the autoloader has 8 slots, with last slot to have cleaning tape included.

The customer requirement is, without any manual efforts need to backup to different tapes on daily basis such as
1. Slot 1 disk--> drive (monday)
2. Slot 2 disk--> drive (Tuesday)
3. Slot disk--> drive (Wednesday)
etc
....
From acronis can see only the tape on the drive, but cannot see the tapes on the slots.

Could any one please help to advise, whether any configuration needs to be done on Acronis Backup 11.5 advanced management console installed on RHEL server 6.5

Thanks in advance

Much appreciate your help

Cheers
Vignesh

Hi Vignesh,

Thank you for your posting! If customer wants to have 1 backup on every tape, you can use the option Always use a free tape for backup. If the purpose is to have all backups made on specific day on one particular tape - you can only create separate Tape Pools for every day and therefore separate backup plans.

Thank you,
