Backup Settings for Tape Backup

Tape drive

If several tape drives are installed in the computer, you can select the tape here on which the tape backup is to take place. Regardless of the hardware installed, the tape drives are numbered Tape0 through Tape4. The sequences correspond to the sequence when installing the tape drives.
 


 

The backup is by default written to the tape as a 1:1 file copy backup.

Settings for the Tape Drive


 

Hardware compression
 Use the hardware compression feature of the tape drive, if available.

 Eject tape after backup
 Automatically eject the tape after the backup. If you use a tape loader/tape library, you should deactivate this option.

 Prepare tape automatically
 Automatically format and prepare unformatted mediums before the backup.

 Overwrite tape
If this option is set, the tape contents are overwritte by the backup. If this option is not set, the new backup is appended to existing data on the tape.

 Z-DBackup needs the add-on module Z-VSScopy  to back up locked or currently used files!
