Hi,
You're looking at the following:
1. bedb.bak is a backup of the BEDB created automatically every night at 4am. This is stored in the Data folder, and effectively means you don't need to backup SQL using an agent on the BE server.
2. You can select the Data and Catalogs folders for nightly backup.
In the event of a media server crash, you'd do the following:
1. Install the OS.
2. Install BE 12.5 and patch.
3. Stop the BE services (including the SQL service), and rename the current Data/Catalogs folders.
4. either restore the backed up Data/Catalogs folders to disk and then copy them to the installation directory and fire up the BE services...
OR...
4. Don't stop the BE services, and restore directly from tape after catalogging it.
Restoring to disk first, and then copying to the installation directory would be my choice...
Thanks!
