Processi di rotazione GFS con la funzione Aggiungi supporto disattivata

If you submit GFS rotation jobs without the Append Media feature enabled, you can maximize media usage by submitting multiple jobs using the same media pool.

For example, if you submit three GFS rotation jobs all using the same media pool and 5-day rotation scheme, all three jobs share the same set of tapes. On each day of the rotation scheme, all three jobs append to the same tape:

• Monday = One tape that includes full backup data from job 1(day 1), job 2(day 1), and job 3(day 1)
• Tuesday = One tape that includes incremental backup data from job1(day 2), job 2(day 2), and job 3(day 2)
• Wednesday = One tape that includes incremental backup data from job 1(day 3), job 2(day 3), and job 3(day 3)
• Thursday = One tape that includes incremental backup data from job 1(day 4), job 2(day 4), and job 3(day 4)
• Friday = One tape that includes weekly backup data from job 1(day 5), job 2(day 5), and job 3(day 5)

This results in five tapes for the week.

Without the Media Maximization option, each job would require its own tape:

• Monday = Three full backup tapes. One tape for job1(day 1), one tape for job 2(day 1), and one tape for job 3(day 1)
• Tuesday = Three incremental backup tapes. One tape for job1(day 2), one tape for job 2(day 2), and one tape for job 3(day 2).
• Wednesday = Three incremental backup tapes. One tape for job1(day 3), one tape for job 2(day 3), and one tape for job 3(day 3).
• Thursday = Three incremental backup tapes. One tape for job1(day 4), one tape for job 2(day 4), and one tape for job 3(day 4).
• Friday = Three Weekly backup tapes. One tape for job1(day 5), one tape for job 2(day 5), and one tape for job 3(day 5).

  Without the Media Maximization option, you need 15 tapes for the week.

Note: When submitting multiple GFS Rotation Jobs with the same media pool without Append Media enabled, tapes can be shared only if the same Backup Method is used. Ad esempio, un nastro in cui sono presenti dati relativi a un processo di backup completo può essere condiviso solo con i dati relativi a un altro processo di backup completo, e non con dati relativi a processi di backup incrementali, differenziali, settimanali o mensili.
