Source:Configuring Migration-Jaglion
SEP sesam migration is a process of copying selected savesets from one media pool (source pool, e.g., disk) to another media pool (target or destination pool, e.g., tape). You can select the savesets for migration from the selected backup task, task group, or client. To optimize the migration performance, you cannot migrate savesets with errors. It is possible to migrate savesets with status successful, savesets with warnings (status successful or with warnings) or partially restorable savesets (with data from cancelled backups).
With migration, you can set up a disk-to-disk-to-tape (D2D2T) backup strategy to reduce your backup and recovery times, move older data offsite for long-term data retention and prepare for disaster recovery.
You can schedule a migration job to start at a specific time and date, or start it manually from the menu bar Activities -> Immediate start -> Migration.
Configuring a migration job involves the following steps:
- Creating a migration task by selecting the backed up data and the source and target media pools
- Creating a migration schedule by specifying when you want to migrate your data
- Creating a migration event by reviewing migration task parameters and (optionally) setting the event priority
Prerequisites
- You must have at least two media pools configured in your SEP sesam environment.
- You must have admin user rights to perform a migration.
