Hi there, here is another of the BE2012 strange behavior case (as i see it):
1) I have multiple servers/jobs with full backup configured daily evening having "keep data for - 1 week" & then a Duplicate to Tape Stage added with Source being "Most Recent Full backup" scheduled on the Last day of every Month (strange? yea..) after the full backup end time..
Now when the Duplicate to tape gets executed successfully i notice that it is taking not the Last Full backup but last 7 full backups (as keep data for 1 week is selected) which is consuming the storage on the tape device.. Can it be explained & solved for me???
2) Also some jobs are configured as Weekly Full backups and keeping data for 4 weeks. Duplicate to tape stage set with Source as "All Backups" scheduled time set after the end time of the weekly full job..
This gets executed and duplicates only the Last Full Weekly backup (and not All Backups).. Not as expected again..
Please let me know if this is a bug or am i doing something wrong?
