I was doing brick level backups for quite a while. Never had a problem with
them, Never really had to use them, but I had the tape space, so figured
what the hell?

Well about two weeks ago after doing them for three years with out a hitch,
suddenly they stopped working. Couldn't back up a one of them.  

Just for grins, I tried to restore a mailbox from a recently fired employee,
and guess what it didn't work. I have done this on a regualar basis as part
of my DR planning, and never had a problem. 

I made no changes to the server in weeks if not months, but suddenly nothing
works. Before subscribing to this list I would have been in a big panic, but
now I just turned them off. I think this shows just how unreliable a BLB
backup is.

Why do brick level backups = BAD?
