Schedule a Duplicacy Copy Job

Scheduled Copy jobs can support an offsite destination with compatible storage setup.

Quick answer:

Scheduled Copy jobs can support an offsite destination with compatible storage setup.

Steps for Windows

  1. Create and validate source storage and copy-compatible destination.
  2. Create the intended Backup job if one does not exist.
  3. Add a Copy job to a schedule after the backup step.
  4. Test recovery directly from the target storage.

How to verify the result

New backed-up revisions appear in the second destination.

Important limitation

Copy jobs do not make sense without verified destination compatibility.

Why this matters

The practical goal is a recoverable Duplicacy revision, not just a successful-looking progress indicator. Keep your source, backup destination, Backup ID and necessary credentials documented. If this workflow changes your retention or storage configuration, verify a restore before applying it to important data.
