Managing repository server storage
You can copy data to a repository server for longer-term data protection. The repository server must be IBM Storage® Protect server 8.1.7 or later to copy data to standard object storage. To copy data to tape, IBM Storage Protect server 8.1.8 or later is required.
You can choose to replicate the IBM Storage Protect Plus data that is copied to the IBM Storage Protect server to a target server. However, IBM Storage Protect Plus is not aware of subsequent IBM Storage Protect server replication operations and you cannot restore the replicated data from the target IBM Storage Protect server to IBM Storage Protect Plus.
