Basic Operation

XCOPY uses archive and backup ARCHVOLS previously created by CA Disk and the FILES they reside in as input to create subsets of the data. It was developed for Data Centers that were required to create subsets of their backup data to take offsite for disaster recovery. By creating a disaster recovery ARCHVOL from a primary archive and backup ARCHVOL, copying the data can be run outside the backup time window without having to quiesce systems relying on the data.
