Backup SQL DB once

 Hi,

 This is a very simple question, but I need to be sure on this.  I need to backup a single DB  with "Copy-only Backup" option on.

 I Wnt to place the backup on a different location, we have a media set which is used for daily backups. I want this backup placed   on a different server  \\192.168.250.xxx\Departments\IT\Backup\2015xxx.bak I have added this location to "back up to" The old one is still there.

 I I then hit OK th backup hangs for 2-3 minutes and gives me an error which points to the old media set. SO I want to create a  new  media set and call it  "onlyonce" but what I am not sure about is  what this Means "back up to a new media set and erase all existing backup sets"  Does that mean all old backups will be deleted?? If so can that be avoided?

pls adv,

brgds
