BackupExec - duplicate to Disk (automatic catalog)

$
0
0

When I select a Disk from "Backup Sets" and right-click "Duplicate to Tape"; many times the "backup set" will continue to show only the disk - but not show the tape under the "Storage" column. Sometimes it shows the tape copy as a new line (with a tape icon and expiry date etc); but often it does not appear automaticlly. In these cases support advises to run a "Catalog" (right click catalog) on the backup set with the disk-icon where the duplicate was done from. Then, after the catlog job has completed, the tape copy will appear as a new line in the "backup sets" display.

 

As a side note, the ctalog job is not visible at all while it is running, neither from the client where it was scheduled from (under backup sets); not on the MMS under "Jobs". When the catalog completes, the catalog job will show up on the MMS only (!) under "Job History".

Summary of enhancements:

1) duplicate jobs should not require a ctalog, but be reflected in the console automatically once they complete

2) catlogs jobs should show as running jobs on the MMS and on the client (currently they never show as queued or running)

3) catalog jobs should show on the client where it was started from under "Job History", not just on the MMS. Like this, there is zero chance to understand what is going on (jobs started do not show under "Jobs" nor under "Job Histoy".
