Automating an append backup
Posted by Neil Jarman on April 14th, 2005


Hi,

I have automated our nightly backup.

I need to do the same for our exchange backup, and want this to be appended
to the nightly backup later.

I can't find the switch to use to append this exchange data.

Many thanks for your help.

Are you using ntbackup? I believe /a is the option you are looking for.

See

Beware; Windows Server 2003 SP1 breaks the ability back up the system
state. Regular file backups appear to still work okay.

Hi Greg,

Thanks - there were issues with just using the /a switch - I can't remember
what now!

Anyway, I got theis great software which interfaces with ntbackup and
resolves many of my problems!

Neil
