Setting default options for offhost backup jobs

You can set the defaults that are used for every backup job.

Note:

If the Central Admin Server Option (CASO) is installed, do not let the central administration server delegate the job. It can delegate the job to a media server that does not have offhost capability. You must manually select the destination device for the CASO jobs that use the offhost backup method.

See How to use media server pools in CASO .
