Virtual Full to another SD

[pbun...@gmail.com]

Hello everybody,

I have a backup running, doing full and incremental backups.

Now I would like to do a Virtual Full backup to another storage daemon.

I start the job manually, but then it hangs with "is waiting on Storage". This sounds like a problem with the # of concurrent jobs, but I increased this at all relevant places.

To check the other SD, I ran a normal backup storing data on it, which worked.

1) Is it possible to do Virtual Full to another SD at all?
2) Do I need the same Media Type for both?
3) Do I need the same Device Name for both?

Hope you could help me. If you need some more info or some tests, let me know.


Peter

Hello,

Virtual Full Backup between two SDs is not implemented, only migrate/copy.

You can do a virtual full and then copy it over to the second sd.

Best regards,

Philipp
