Full backup
Configuring backups
You schedule your daily full backup each day from Monday to Friday at 6 PM. The
data protection is set to 4 weeks. You have 500 GB of data to back up. You use
Drive 1, Drive 2, Drive 3, and Drive 4. The backup uses 4 media and is completed
in approximately 2 hours.
Configuring automated media copying
You use post-backup media copying because you have enough devices available.
You specify Drive 1, Drive 2, Drive 3, and Drive 4 as the source devices, and Drive
5, Drive 6, Drive 7, and Drive 8 as the target devices. You set the same data
protection as original and specify the location of the media.
For a graphic representation of the full database backup and automated media
copying, see Figure 104 on page 339.

You schedule your monthly full backup on Saturday at 12 PM. This backup is intended
for archiving purposes, so it is normally not copied.
