Ed - 

With all due respect, both posts that you've made in response to this thread
have been negative (George Carlin hasn't written anything original...  Blah,
blah...) and the fact that I mention that I should beat my admin because of
missing a backup.  How I choose to treat my employees is my business.

I'm not sure why I'm even bothering to defend myself to you.

Please.  If you have nothing of value to add - don't respond.  If you want
to be a valued member of the list - try being nice.

Or, if it's just me you don't like - filter me out of your list.

I really don't appreciate the off-handed, single thought retorts.

Who ARE you, anyway?

Rick

The admin is not at fault because he wasn't aware that the backup didn't
complete?  You're an awfully forgiving boss.

Work with Exchange much?  Miss one or two backups and that volume that holds
your log files might experience this issue with no fault of the admin at
all.  (Well, except for the fact that your backup system didn't page the
person in charge to notify it didn't run...  Or, that person chose not to
respond.)

Regardless...  Poo-poo happens.  At least, now they know.

Not dumb for Microsoft.... dumb for the Admin to get the drive in that
condition and need a KB to wack them upside the head.

At the end of the day... it's my responsibility for my network.  I won't be
complaining to Microsoft that they didn't warn me that bad things might
happen if I don't keep nice breathing room on my drives.
