Hi all, i'd like to backup our open-e dss volumes on a big usb disk.
But i wanna backup on an even and odd couple of disk.
i'm not sure how to do that, documentation is quite pour on backup.
i've tried to make two dynamics volume, but it wont run.
where can i find more docs on backup?

This is a short how to on using a USB drive to backup your NAS shares. The only thing missing is the Snapshot but when setting up your task it will ask you to create a snapshot.
http://kb.open-e.com/entry/112/
Configure your Volume group and dynamic unit (an 8TB thumb drive)
We created our NAS volume and assigned a snapshot to it
In configuration ->NAS settings we enabled local backup settings
CONFIGURATION -> NAS settings -> Function: Local backup settings.
We selected Dynamic Volume and created a backup device
MAINTENANCE -> backup -> Function: Create new virtual backup device
Create a new backup tape, I named this USB
MAINTENANCE -> backup -> [device_name] -> Function: Backup device tapes.
Create a backup pool named backup
MAINTENANCE -> backup -> Function: Create new pool
We created a backup task named test1 and will backup share test and backup_db_lv0000
MAINTENANCE -> backup -> Backup tasks -> Function: Create new backup task.
We can start the backup task manually, by clicking on the green play button
MAINTENANCE -> backup -> Backup tasks -> Function: Create new backup task.
Or we can create a backup interval of once every 10 minutes
MAINTENANCE -> backup -> Backup tasks -> [task_name] -> Function: Create new schedule for backup task.
We have 2 backups
STATUS -> tasks -> Tasks -> [Task_type] -> Function: Tasks log.
