It's the same level of complexity of doing an in-VM backup using normal tools. You can't just restore two SQL Servers that are mirrored or replication partners using native tools and expect the mirroring to work. In either case, the operator should have a detailed run book that details each step to be followed. In that case, there is no complexity beyond reading a document and following instructions. The complexity is in developing the thoroughly tested operations guide in the first place. Cheers Ken -----Original Message----- From: Michael B.

Yes, that would work - but again, it's an additional level of complexity. You could do it. I could do it. Most of the admins for my clients could not do it properly, except by pure luck.

How would this impact SQL Servers - they tend to be independent of each other. For those that are connected (replication/mirroring/log ship) you could restore the master, then manually set up the replication in the event of a real disaster (everything's gone) Cheers Ken ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin
