Backup Exec 2012: Verify in a backup-to-disk-to-tape chain?

I need a solution

Hello all,

it's me again. smiley

I haven't found conclusive information on this topic, I although I found some suggestions here and there to disable verify.

Please consider this: a server is backed up to a dedup-device (OST) and that is copied to tape directly afterwards. The data on the tape is verified.

I'd say that inserting a verification stage for the data on the deduplication device is superfluous as long as it is verified after another duplication, because, I suppose, verification checks the same checksums as if reading from the device and vice versa, so the duplication to tape is already equivalent to a verification.

Am I right or wrong?

I think this is quite important, because the default template's setting - to verify immediately after a backup and then duplicate - costs a lot of time and ressources.

Thanks in advance, Manuel
