Backing Up a Virtual Copy

You can use Recovery Manager to back up virtual copies to media using HP Data Protector or Symantec NetBackup.

To back up a virtual copy to media, you must first configure your backup software (Data Protector or NetBackup) as described in “Configuring Backup Software” (page 26).

You can back up virtual copies at the storage group level or by individual virtual copy. You can also schedule Recovery Manager to automatically create backups of storage groups.

NOTE: You can configure Recovery Manager to automatically send email notifications when backups are manually or automatically created. For more information, see “Configuring Email Notifications” (page 34).

Manually Creating Backups at the Storage Group Level

When you create a backup of a storage group level virtual copy, Recovery Manager automatically creates a virtual copy for the storage group and mounts it, your backup software backs the virtual copy up to media, and Recovery Manager unmounts the virtual copy. You can also choose to have Recovery Manager automatically remove the newly created virtual copy.

To create a backup of a virtual copy at the storage group level:

1.In the node tree pane, right-click the storage group node you want to back up and select Backup to Media.

2.From the Vendor drop-down list, select the backup software you are using:
