Perform Incremental and Differential Backups

Symptom:

After performing full backup of the server, I schedule incremental and differential backups of the full server. Is this backup information recorded in the machine- specific recovery disks (MSDs)? Can I recover these incremental and differential backup sessions during disaster recovery?

Solution:

Windows 2003

Yes. The incremental and differential backup sessions of full node backups are recorded in the MSDs along with the full backups. During disaster recovery, you can select the sessions you want to restore.
