Two VDP Appliances Backing Up The Same VMs

$

Hi,

 

So my goal is to have weekly backups go to one VDP appliance, and monthly backups go to another VDP appliance, on a separate datastore.  I am stuck on VDP v5.1.1 for now since I can't upgrade my vCenters yet.  What I am trying to do is protect my backups from a datastore failure and/or VDP OS corruption - both of which have already happened in the past.

 

My question is, will I be able to just deploy a 2nd VDP appliance and tell it to back up the same VMs that are already being backed up by the 1st VDP appliance?  I'm wondering what the complications would be, i.e. if the 2nd VDP only runs a monthly backup, will it be smart enough to get all the changes from the previous monthly backup or will it pick up the CBT files from the last daily backup from the 1st VDP appliance?

 

Thanks!
