Solstice Backup 5.1 Administration Guide

Configuring a Pool for Archive Data

If you want to use Backup Archive to archive data, Backup requires a specific pool to receive the archive data. You can then store these volumes offsite, if you want. If you do not associate data to be archived with a customized archive pool, Backup automatically uses the preconfigured Archive pool. You must mount an appropriately labeled volume on a storage device for the archive process to proceed smoothly. See Chapter 6, Backup Archive for more information on the Backup archive feature.
