I've been searching the forums and I'm reading somewhat conflicting information regarding the files to backup.
I want the DB written to tape on the last job that runs each night, so in effect I could grab last nights tapes 1/18 to restore the db that was created on 1/17.
I'll always be one day behind on the bedb.bak, and I realize this.
However, I've also seen where folks have backed up bedb.bak, bedb_dat.mdf and bedb_log.ldf.
I run DB Maintenece at 4:00 am every morning but the jobs dont finish until 9:00 am with verify turned on, I'll change the DB maint to run after the last job.
Anyway, ultimatley, what is the proper file to backup using Backup Exec and not a third party app so in the event the Backup Exec Server (there is only one) failed I could restore it elsewhere?
Backup Exec 11d Rev 7170
W2K3 Standard SP1
Thanks
