Backup Copy

The Manage Backup Copy feature can be used in the BDRSuite Backup Server by navigating to the Backup tab -> Manage Backup Copy 

The already configured Primary Backup Job will run as per the schedule and the backup data will be sent to the default repository. Choosing the Manage Backup Copy option will let you create multiple Backup Copy Jobs of this primary Backup Job which can be stored in various backup repositories configured.

Information Note: Multiple Volumes/Storage devices ie; Both the Block & the Object storage, can be mapped and added as repositories to the BDRSuite Backup Server 

Hence, the same backup data is stored in multiple storage locations within the production environment.
