Hi,
I must implement a new backup infrastructure. On the central location I will backup the servers with DPM2012 sp1 (Dell PowerEdge R720xd). On a co location I have another Windows 2012 server (PowerEdge R720xd). The central DPM1 server use the server from the co location as storage server (SMB) for long term backup jobs.
On the co location I have a Dell PowerVault ML6000 tape robot connected to the location server with FC. (I can not place the tape robot in the central location (space problem)).
Can someone help me with my questions?
1: If I connect the tape robot with the server on the co location can i use it from the central DPM server?
2: Is there anyone who knows a way to communicate with the tape robot with iSCSI (can i buy something)
3: Is it smart to install DPM either on the server on the co location.
Thanks
