Ok,
So I'm trying to figure out how to accomplish this and I think I have a kink
in my think! I've switched to running Accurate Jobs for my backups from GFS.
I've created an Accurate pool where my Incrementals are going now and it has
a next pool directive to my Data Domain Monthly pool (see the config below).
I have about 60 clients and I don't want to configure separate jobs for the
VirtualFulls, one because I'm lazy and two, it's not very manageable. Using
the schedule option, I can get this working the way I want, however,
Concurrent Jobs get in the way! Basically, 8 VirtualFull jobs try to start
and they all fight for resources so that none of them complete. If the
schedule stanza could accept "Concurrent Jobs" then that would be ok, but
it doesn't fit in the "Job" section. Setting the concurrent jobs to 1 would
make virtual fulls work fine, but standard backups will go from 1-2 hours to
5-6 hours which is not acceptable.
Schedule {
Name = "AccurateJobs"
Run = Level=Incremental Pool=DD-Accurate at 20:04
Run = Level=VirtualFull Pool=DD-Accurate 2nd fri at 16:00
}
Storage {
Name = DD-Accurate
Address = my.sd.com
Password = "password"
Media Type = DD-Accurate
Device = DD-Accurate
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 8
}
Storage {
Name = DD-Monthly
Address = my.sd.com
Password = "password"
Media Type = DD-Month
Device = DD-Monthly
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 8
}
Pool {
Name = DD-Accurate
Pool Type = Backup
LabelFormat = "Accurate-"
Recycle = yes
AutoPrune = yes
Storage = DD-Accurate
Volume Retention = 4 month
Maximum Volume Bytes = 100G
Next Pool = DD-Monthly
RecyclePool = DD-Accurate
Action On Purge = Truncate
}
Pool {
Name = DD-Monthly
Pool Type = Backup
LabelFormat = "Monthly-"
Recycle = yes
AutoPrune = yes
Storage = DD-Monthly
Volume Retention = 6 month
Maximum Volume Bytes = 200G
Next Pool = Monthly
Migration Time = 5 month
RecyclePool = DD-Monthly
Action On Purge = Truncate
}
