I need some precision on backup to tape with GFS media pool.
(Especially because of v13 and it's end of Reverse incremental support)
The main goal for tape is to achieve the offsite/offline copy objective of 32110 rules.
It's better to have a minimal number of tapes to restore the complete site in case of disaster recover. (ie the last tape should be full backup or virtual full)
Is GFS media pool the good configuration for this ?
In a scenario with 14 daily, 4 weekly, 12 monthly, 2 yearly, how many tapes do we need (32?) (we suppose one tape is sufficient for a full backup) ?
How to know which tapes needs to be exported, which one need to be present in the tape library ?
Thx
