Add a Copy to Tape Task to the Plan

The Copy to Tape task lets you copy your data to a tape. The tape media is identified from the Arcserve Backup Server that you have added.

When the Arcserve Backup group is renamed in the Arcserve Backup server, you must modify the Copy to Tape in an Arcserve UDP plan to link the new group name. You must also specify the new media pool to retain tapes. The Copy to Tape task is already changed to the new group name and so it cannot use the original media pool, which is associated with the old group name.

Follow these steps:

1. Click Add a Task from the left pane.

   A new task is added to the left pane.

2. From the Task Type drop-down menu, select Copy to Tape.

   The Copy to Tape task is added.

   Now specify the Source, Destination, Schedule, and Advanced details.
