On my non-SBS servers I run a script that will run backup to tape and=20
then email me the log file (actually to the support@company.com) and=20
this lets me and the person that changes the tapes know that things are=20
working (or not).
What if I want to do this with SBS, but I still want to allow the wizard =
interface to work for the GUI?
Normally I have a batch file with the following contents:
rem @echo off
rem This batch file is scheduled with the AT command to run at 1am each =
day.
rem Next line will refresh the remote storage management to recognized
rem new media that is inserted so the next backup command does not=20
fail,
rem thinking it is overwriting something it should not.
set logfile=3D"%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft
\Windows NT\NTBackup\data\backup01.log"
del /Q C:\backups\Tape_backup.log
