Question about backing up read only vault partitions.
Updated: 21 May 2010 | 3 comments
Hi Guys
I have a quick question
currently we have 3 vault partitions in 1 Vault store on 2007 SP4. the read only vault stores are only backed up monthly, however, when these are backed up there is also often the standard active store backup running. However, not always the case as the standard backups run monday to friday.
At the moment, as the 2 jobs are seperate subclients in commvault the services are not stopped when backing up the read only stores. But ARE stopped when backing up the active stores. Is there a negative consequence to backing up read only stores while the services are running?
