Copying deduplicated data in directory-container storage pools to tape
You can protect directory-container storage pools by copying the data to container-copy storage pools, where the deduplicated data is stored on tape volumes.
About this task
A container-copy storage pool is a type of storage pool that provides an alternative to
using a replication server to protect data in a directory-container storage pool. Container-copy
storage pools can be used to repair minor to moderate directory-container storage pool damage, which
includes damaged containers or
directories.
Tip: As an alternative to copying deduplicated data to tape, you can
use copy storage rules to automatically create a daily, hydrated copy of your directory-container
storage pool to tape for disaster recovery. For information, see Comparing options for copying directory-container storage pool data to tape.
