You can create a job to duplicate backup data, selecting either to duplicate existing backup sets or to duplicate backup sets immediately following a scheduled job.
You can use a duplicate backup job to copy data directly from a virtual device to a physical device. Software encryption cannot be applied to a duplicate backup job when you copy data directly from a virtual device to a physical device. You must either disable DirectCopy or select not to encrypt the job.
See How to copy data directly from a virtual tape library to a physical tape device.
If you select to duplicate existing backup sets, the backup sets you select from catalogs are read from the source media and written to the selected destination, such as a drive, drive pool, or backup folder. You can schedule when this type of job runs.
If you duplicate Oracle or DB2 backup sets that were created with multiple data streams, note the following:
If you select to duplicate backup sets following a job, you select a scheduled backup job as the source. That backup job runs first, and then the backup sets it created are copied to the destination you selected for the duplicate job. To duplicate backup sets following a job, the backup job must be scheduled to run and must not be associated with any other duplicate jobs. You cannot schedule this job; instead, the duplicate job runs only after the related, or linked, backup job completes.
