Hi Dell!
Thank you very much for your answer!
Is there any way to know this in advance? The Exchange people schedule the
full backup once a week and incrementals for all other days. Now the backup
failed, so if we can find out in advance whether a full backup is required
we can start a full automatically instead of the incremental.
Do you know a way to do this in a script or batchfile or something?
Again, thank you for your answer!
Kindest regards,

Eric,
In regards to TDP for Exchange... You must run a full backup before
an incremental backup will work. Now, if you run a full backup with
something other than TDP for Exchange, the Exchange Server will gladly let
you do that. So, the point is that you should ALWAYS run a a full backup
with TDP for Exchange before attempting any incremental or differential
backup. If you are using NTBACKUP or some other tool as a supplement, you
need to be very careful, because Exchange won't know that, and will let you
do it. The problem would then appear when you tried to perform a restore
using both tools.
Thanks, Del
