Can I use ABR 11.5 with deduplication to backup SBS 2011 on multiple rotating USB drives
Hi, I'm looking at ABR 11.5 with deduplication for a customer with a new MS SBS 2011 Standard environment to backup the SBS server only.
I want to make full backups to several external USB drives. the usb drives are not connected to the server all the time. One drive will be connected, one drive will be in a physical vault and another one will be kept offsite. The drives will rotate weekly.
Is this solution possible with the deduplication option and where would I store sthe deduplication database, on the internal drives of the server or on each external usb drive?
I cannot create a seperate vault and backup-schedule for each usb drive because I'm sure the drives will not be rotated on the same day of every week. It will get forgotten!
I searched this forum for a solution but I didn't find a way to do this with the deduplication.
