Virtual TapeServer 8.4 Supplemental Installation Guide

Enabling and Configuring AutoCopy and Instant DR | 39
Do this by creating three lines in the jobset. If these virtual tapes are in the same pool,
you only need to specify vault and pool once and use = for these items on the second
and third lines. On each line, specify the source virtual tape name. Specify ABCABC for
target name on the first line and then specify = on the last two lines.
Alternately, you can use the wildcard shortcut by creating a one-line jobset with the
value ABC* for the virtual tape name, assuming ABC* does not identify more virtual
tapes than the ones you are working with. The asterisk is the only wildcard character
accepted and can be used only in the cartridge field. It can appear anywhere in the
name (before, after, or in the middle). It can also appear by itself to designate all
virtual tapes in the pool. If the All Files checkbox is not selected, VTS finds the virtual
tape identified with a wildcard that has most recently been modified. In this case, it
makes sense to specifically identify the target virtual tape name instead of using ==.
If the All Files checkbox is selected, the opposite is true. It is unlikely that you would
want multiple asterisk-identified source files backed up to the same destination virtual
tape name. In this case, use == in the target field.
Also, click DEL for any blank rows in the Job Set section of the page.
