I have a situation where I need to backup 3TB of compressed data on a regular basis. I have two 5220 appliances both acting as Master/Media servers. I really don't want it sitting in my Dedupe pool, so I'm trying to take advantage of the 3.5TB of Advanced Disk storage that I have. What I would like to do is to have one appliance backup the data and keep it for a week and have it copied over to the remote master and stay for another week, about 2 weeks total retention. Any thoughts on how to do this? I thought I could back it up to the Dedup pool on the local master, duplicate it to AdvDisk and replicate to the remote master, but that doesn't seem to be working. I know I will have to use the Dedup pool for AIR, but I want that backup to expire immediately if possible.
I need a solution
