Hi,

My backup window is relatively large, but the problem with the delay had to make backup to disk and after to media. So I did the following:

- Create a Job to make backup to the disk (agent -> disk)

- Create a Job disk to the media (disk -> media)

And the first job creates a .bkf file with the data and later the second job copy from the disk to the media. When this finish and verifying by BkupExec a post-command runs and delete the files on the folder where .bkf it was. The time of backup was reduce in 30, but another problem shows when I tryed to restore a backup and by "Viewing by Resource" I didn't execute sucessfully the restore and receive the follow message: "A backup set was created which contains no data. See the job log for details". I belive that's happen because the post-command, but i can't maintain the data on the disk due to lack of space.

I would like to know if is possible with BkupExec to make a cache on disk, automatically copy to the media and restore withou problems.

Or if exists another solution for my problem.

environment of the backup
