Veritas NetBackup™ Deduplication Guide

Duplicate data cloud by using cloud LSU

Run the following steps to duplicate backup images from local MSDP to cloud LSU:

  • Configure an MSDP storage server and create a disk pool by using "PureDiskVolume" and then create a storage unit (local storage unit).

  • Create a cloud LSU and related disk pool and storage unit (cloud storage unit).

  • Create a Storage Lifecycle Policy and add "Backup" and "Duplication" values. Data is backs up to local storage unit and then duplicates to a cloud storage unit.

  • Create a backup policy and use storage lifecycle policy as policy storage.

  • Run the backup and the data is written to local storage and then duplicated to cloud storage.

Duplication can also be done from cloud LSU to local MSDP and between two cloud LSUs.
