Can I use the same storage for backup and backup copy?

question Answer

The answer is NO.

When you are adding a storage resource to Vinchin backup server/node, you can only choose one Storage Objective out of the three options Backup, Backup Copy and Backup Archive.

The reason of why you cannot use one storage for two different purposes, is because if you use one storage to save different copies of your backups, you will possibly lose all data upon a storage failure incident.
