You can select a particular client, agent, backup set/instance, or subclient
to be associated with a secondary copy. Once selected, only those data protection
operations of the object(s) chosen will be copied to the copy during an
auxiliary copy operation.
For example, SP_Tape_Library1_1 has three
subclients assigned to it, client_data_1,
client_data_2, and
client_data_3, as displayed in the
Associations tab of the
Copy Properties dialog box.

If, for example, a copy only needs data protection operations from
client_data_3 copied to it, then
client_data_3 should be selected. Once
selected, only data protection operations from
client_data_3 will be copied to this storage policy copy.
|
If the associated entity is deleted from the CommCell, the Subclient-Based
Storage Policy Copy will revert to copying the data protection operations
from all subclients associated to the storage policy. |
