how to setup file to tape for rotate of tapes to and from offside storage
dear all,apology i am a newbie here and my question may sound naive. we appreciate any help from your guys.we used tivoli in the past to backup oracle for both long term data keeping and dr. we created 3 sets of tapes. 2 sets would  be always in the tape library and one at remote site. every 2 weeks we get back the offsite set and load it into library, and send one set of tapes to remote site for storage.could you please give some idea how to set up file-to-tape job (let say daily full backup of oracle) in veeam in similar fashion? our idea is to create a media pool with 3 media sets. one media set online for backup for 2 weeks, another offline in the tape library and one media set in the vault (to keep in remote site). and we will rotate in that way for every 2 weeks.will that work? we value your input very much.thank you.hien
hi hien and welcome to the community.do you take full image backups of your oracle servers (virtual/physical)? in this case please do not use file 2 tape but create machine to tape jobs to directly copy the image backups.you can then arrange your available tapes in media pools and export one of the media sets you’re using.you can configure how long you want to protect data on the tapes until it gets overwritten.from the gui you can use a media set only for one weekbefore switching to the next one.you can also look into gfs media pools and use weeklies (append data to unfinished).you can use powershell however to automate everything around exporting if you like or do that manually. also you can monitor exported tapes in vaults.hope that makes sense. tape handling can be a bit of a fuss.however, you might want to have a look on the scale-out backup repository and capacity tier where you can copy your backups to an object storage repository with immutability and thus you can avoid the tape handling and you can already get an off-site copy of your daily backups.(e.g. 42 days retention, with copy to object storage from day 1, immutability for 42 days,and move to object storage after day 14 will give you 14 days of local backups for fastest restores and the rest online and immutable on the object storage).
well, transferring your data and transferring that and your settings are different. data, such as music, letters, video, pictures can burn to disk or copy/move to external drive. installed applications won't go, you'll have to reinstall from disk or download. on the other hand, you can transfer settings, favorites etc. use files and settings transfer wizard. or laplink software and cable. and use retention: <https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/files_retention> If your intent is to move a file from one iSeries (or System i) to another iSeries/System i then I’m not sure why you are going through the intermediate step of a text file. But in any case, if you have TCP/IP up between the two systems then FTP is the way to go.


If you just want the data, ftp the file.


If you want the database:  

Create a save file on the source system  

Save the database to the save file  

Create a save file on the target system  

FTP the save file to the target system in binary mode  

Restore the database on the target system


If you’re not familiar with FTP let us know. We can guide you through the steps (there aren’t many). If you don’t have TCP/IP between the two systems, let us know what options you do have in transferring data between the two systems (SNA, tape, etc).


Bruce Vining to the best of my knowledge, there is no way to put it in an offline mode. but you could just set up a fixed schedule for them. should the device go offline, i think that using fixed schedules it will still run.

if you don’t mind monitoring it occasionally for them, you could set it up for them and… hey [@msriitd](/u/msriitd)! welcome to the community! :wave:

we do not rotate signing keys regularly or otherwise. you can do this manually from the dashboard, as you mentioned, or using management api:

(some more info on [managing signing keys](https://auth0.com/docs/tokens/manage-signing-keys))… hi,we have no formal “copy file type and template” from environment test to prod.this is what i’ve done hundreds of times.assuming you created a new file type or copied an existing template. - do this same process in prod (or the other environment), ideally keep the same name and description - just keeps things clean.then update the tabs so the file separator and date formant is the same. if you created any external file template controls update this as well,finally, - in the file template details, i delete all records in the new prod, and then use the copy / past object to copy the details from test to prod. rather than analyzing to see what’s different in the details between test and prod, if we know test works, i would typically delete the details and copy object from test to prod.if you had any formula in test you can manually copy these as well. it’s a few steps, but it only takes a couple minutes. best regards,thomas you might be able to use synchronize. if you have more than 2 tables, you will need to use it multiple times.

how do i have to do the set-up?

ah, with duplex setup is quite simple: you just have to enter the same ip addresses and port names.

the internal osc server in renoise is not used for this purpose (although duplex is now using it for triggering notes, so you might want to leave … i found the solution, if i select another option in the backup configuration settings, it is possible to enable the "split file" option.

thanks again for your help!

zeno experiment a little with the export code itself. the number of lines in the code are reflected in the output.

so if you want to have the output close together, something like the following might be better:

$filename(c:\users\me\desktop%album%.txt,utf-16)$loop(%track%)%track%|%year%|%genre%

$loope…
