Hi Folks
I have 11 Protection groups configured to 30 days disk backups and then on 1st of every month that data to be written to tape.
Means
Short Term retention (Disk) : 30 Days
Long Term retention (Tape) : 5 Years (To be written on 1st of every month)
Now I have 3 TB each tape in tape library, on tape job time - express full backups size is varying between 2.5 TB to 3.5 TB.
Through tape optimization I have configured all tape backups to single tape, so when data size is 2.5 TB that is writing properly.
But when data size is more than 3 TB on tape job time, it make tape offsite ready after filling it and the jobs having restof 500 Gigs data are failing. Is there any way so I can calculate data size before 1st of month so I can decide either to send it to single tape or two !
