Requesting a disc/tape backup
1. From the backup set tree, select the required backup set, right-click and select Request Disc/Tape.
The Request Disc/Tape Wizard appears.
2. Select the Media and Option for the Disc / Tape request.
3. Click Next.
The Select directories/files screen appears.
• If you select Snapshot, the entire backup set will be selected and you will not be able to change any settings.
• If you select Selective, you must select the directories/files for restore in the same manner as for regular restore.
4. After making the required selections, click Finish.
The Disc/Tape Mailing Information screen appears.
5. Enter the required mailing information and click OK to proceed.
DS-System will then mirror all the selected files (from the Request Process) to a buffer directory in DS-System (i.e. your service provider's site). Your service provider will then make the Disc/Tape order from this buffer.
NOTE: This backup set will not be accessible (for backup) until your service provider makes the Disc/Tape.
