db backup

  • i have a db of 70gb.ihave 2 backup devices of 40 gb each.It is possible to take a full back up of my db using these devices.

  • Hi,

    Yes, it is possible to do so. In the 'Backup Database' dialog simply add both your devices to the 'Destination' section. The database will backup almost equally onto both the devices...

    Regards...

  • thank u

  • You will need both of the backup files to restore, since the backup will be stripped across the 2. Make sure you don't lose one of thse files.
