VSOM Archive Backups

[Reid Ditzler]

I have been given this task:

3 Locations - 1 HQ 2 remote branches

all 3 locations have their own VSOM system but the 2 branch locations are using VSOM on a router.

Is there anyway that I can have the archives from the branch locations moved to the HQ VSMS afterhours so not to hog bandwidth?

Thanks,

Reid

You may want to consider using a NAS device for the 2 Routers instead. Moving big files across the WAN may not be necessary.

FIgured it out, here is what I did:

On the branch VSOM created a new server and assigned it to be the backup VSVM and used the IP of the my main HQ VSMS.

Then altered each archive, in the backup tab there is a drop down down box to select the newly created backup VSVM and enter a time that it will send the archive to the backup VSMS.......

Done!

Thanks

What time did you set the automatic backups? How is the bandwidth on the uploads to the other server?

I set the backups to transfer at 23:59 (11:59 PM) so it wouldn't effect the bandwidth at all.
