The Life of Backup TapesMedia Lifecycle Management – Typical Scenario 24
Media Management:Retention, Duplication and Vaulting • Tapes managed from first write to reuse based on user-defined media families, duplication and rotation policies 25
1 3 5 Vaulting Schedule Duplication Schedule Policies: Vaulting, Duplication Schedules: Vaulting, duplication -NEWvaulting schedule granularity by media family and/or location in OSB 10.3 Media Family(s) 4 2 Association: Map policy(s) to media family Storage* Location(s) *OSB automatically defines active locations(tape devices) for all configured devices. Tape ManagementAs Easy as 1,2,3,4,5…. Define tape pools, storage locations, policies and schedules: 26
Managing Tape Vaulting • Vaulting scan generates a media movement job • “Vault Now”, one-off scan outside of regular schedule – New in OSB 10.3 • Based on triggers associated with Vaulting Scan Schedules • Media Movement job includes all tapes eligible for rotation per policy • This job can run automatically or have pending status until run by user • Each media movement job has associated pick and distribution report • Vaulted tapes have “in transit” location status until user confirms arrival at vault location – New in OSB 10.3 • Reporting • Pick and distribution reports • Location, schedule, exception and missing reports 27
Automated Tape Duplication • Tape duplication may occur per policy or on one-off, on-demand basis • Migrate option copies the tape then deletes the original • Commonly used to reclaim space on VTL for backup jobs • Seamlessly restore from original or duplicate tape • OSB will automatically choose tape in closest physical proximity • Original and duplicate tapes uniquely identified within OSB catalog • Duplicate tapes may have the same or different retention and rotation schedule Duplicate – “X” Media Family Duplicate – “Y” Media Family Original : “X”Media Family 28
Policy-Based Media Management…In Action 2-Month Retention For Original Tapes • Tapes duplicated to another media family may have different retention and rotation schedule than original tape 3-Year Retention For Duplicated Tapes 29
