Disk-Assisted Backup Whitepaper

• The restore chain must be complete, meaning that all the object versions that comprise it have the

status Completed or Completed/Errors and all the media holding these object versions are

available.

• The necessary backup devices are configured and the media prepared.

• You need a Media Agent installed on every system that will participate in an object consolidation

session.

• You need appropriate user rights for starting an object consolidation session (Start backup

specification).

• To perform a virtual full backup, all the backups source (full, incremental) and target (virtual full)

must reside in the same File Library that uses distributed file medium format.
