Tuvok Posted May 7, 2004 Report Share Posted May 7, 2004 Hello, I created 5 backupsets for my server. Everyday I want my backuptape fully erased. Now I have to do it manually. Is it possible to automatically erase the tape without confirmation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmyJ Posted May 7, 2004 Report Share Posted May 7, 2004 Make sure your script schedule is set to do Recycle backups, and check Configure > Preferences > Media > Erasure is set to 'Automatically reuse named media' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noctivigan Posted May 8, 2004 Report Share Posted May 8, 2004 I have the same issue.... I'd like to keep 8 weeks of data all the time. So should I create 8 backup sets? and have recycle turned on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natew Posted May 11, 2004 Report Share Posted May 11, 2004 Hi If you want to keep 8 weeks of backup you should only recycle periodically. Can you give some more specifics about the tape rotation (daily, weekly etc) that you will use? Thanks Nate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
