Disk-to-Tape Setup
A D2D2T backup is really two backups:
- backup data to disk, then
- transfer backup data set from disk to tape.
The disk-to-disk operation is fast and will minimise network
traffic. Transfer of the data set from disk-to-tape is a backup which
you time to run at a later date, when the network is quiet.
Note
Both the disk-to-disk backup and the disk-to-tape transfer must be
done on the same media server.
