Restore of Incremental and Differential Backups
Valid on Windows 2003 and Windows XP
Symptom
Every time I perform an incremental/differential backup, should I store the sessions in the same media as the full backup?
Solution
The full and incremental / differential sessions can reside on different media or same media. You can create a machine specific disk (MSD) after all backups are run or after every incremental /differential backup.
Perform the disaster recovery process, as you would do normally. The Disaster Recovery Option will not automatically scan any additional sessions created after creation of this MSD. The MSD would have information about all backups (full and incremental / differential) that were performed before MSD was created. The Disaster Recovery Option would now automatically restore all the full sessions and incremental /differential sessions recorded in this MSD.
