+1. If you can get away with it, this hugely decreases complexity and time-to-restore. Simplicity is golden. Complexity breeds failure. KISS. We were doing fancier things before we got a bigger tape drive with a server upgrade, and it's been a win. Sometimes you can't afford to do a full every night (data set size, backup window time, etc.), and if so, the complexity is justified a cost of operations. But if you can dodge that, do it. :) -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
