How Offsite Copy works

Using external drives as your Offsite Copy destination

See "To define a drive-based backup"
See "Editing backup settings"
Use an external drive as your Offsite Copy destination. This method lets you take
a copy of your data with you when you leave the office. By using two external hard
disks, you can be certain that you have a recent copy of your data both on and off
site.
For example, suppose on a Monday morning you define a new backup job of your
system drive. You choose a recovery point set as your backup job type. You set up
an external drive (A) as the first Offsite Copy destination, and another external
drive (B) as the second Offsite Copy destination. You schedule the backup job to
run every midnight except on the weekends. You also enable recovery point
encryption to protect the data that you take with you from unauthorized access.
See "About recovery point encryption "
Before you leave the office on Monday evening, you plug in drive A and take drive
B home with you.
On Tuesday morning, you find that Monday's base recovery point has been
successfully copied to drive A. At the end of the day, you unplug drive A and take
it home for safe keeping.
