You can use the export media template to set up an export media utility job that runs automatically after a backup or duplicate backup set job completes. If the targeted device is a library with a portal, the export media job moves the media from its slot in the portal and generates an alert reminding you to remove the media from the portal. You can select a vault to move the media to after it is exported from the robotic library slots. If the device is a library that does not have a portal, the export media job will generate an alert reminding you to remove the media from the indicated slot.
The export media template must be part of a multi-template policy. There must be a source template that produces media and initiates the export job. For example, if you want to export media after your monthly full backup completes, set up a policy with a backup template for the monthly full backup job and set up an export template to run after the monthly full job completes. If a job requires multiple pieces of media, the export media job starts after the source backup job completes, not after each piece of media is filled.
When you create an export media template, Backup Exec automatically adds the After <Template A> completes, start <Template B> to export media template rule to the policy. Backup Exec replaces <Template A> with the name of the template that you select as the source for the export media template, such as a backup template. Backup Exec replaces <Template B> with the export media template.
To add an export media template to a policy
Set up a backup template, which will be the media-producing template that is the source for the export job.
On the Template Selection dialog box, select Export Media Template, and then click OK.
The Export Media template displays only if the policy contains a backup template.
Select the media-producing template to use as the source for the export job.
For example, if you want to export media after the monthly full backup completes, select the template for monthly full backups as the source media set template.
On the Properties pane, under Settings, click General. Type a name for this export media template.
To move the media to a media vault after a successful export, on the Properties pane, under Settings, click Options, and select a media vault.
If you want to set up notification for this job, on the Properties pane, under Settings, click Notification.
See Assigning notification recipients for completed jobs.
The export media job must run according to the template rule, so you do not need to set any schedule options for this job.
Backup Exec adds the template rule called After <Template A> completes, start <Template B> to export media.
The template is complete. You can add another template or combine the policy with a selection list.
