jobsets, one right after another, to run multiple synchronization tasks simultaneously, though
whether you can do this depends on the performance capabilities of your host server
resources.
Each jobset contains entries that identify virtual tapes to process. A virtual tape is identified
by vault, pool, and virtual tape name. The destination name of the virtual tape on the remote
VTS server can be the same as the source or different, and it is referred to as a target. In a
simple scenario, you can synchronize virtual tapes to the same target names on the remote
system. Also, each jobset can specify many targets, or you can have a separate jobset for each
target.
On the Virtual Media - Instant DR page, a job history log is maintained. You can select an
existing backup set for execution or create a new backup set. You can also dispatch backup
jobs.
Note Before beginning the following procedure, verify that the instant dr option is
available from the window drop-down list on the Virtual Media - Operation page. If
this option is not available, the menu_InstantDR parameter must be set to YES in
the VTS configuration file. Edit the configuration file by clicking Supervisor
Functions on the navigation pane and then clicking Edit Configuration File. Or,
you may need to contact HP Global Critical Solution Center (GCSC) if Instant DR is
not enabled and configured.
