How would I know? -- A compare of cause is useless, as it will always fail if data is flushed to disk while the backup is in progress. So, how do I determine a good backup of a database in consistent state from a backup of a corrupted backup -- other than by testing the database in Entourage? btw, in my initial testing, E'rage 2001 and Retrospect 4.0 seem to play nice together -- looks like E'rage delays flushes to disk while the database is being backed up. I'm not 100% certain, though -- if anybody else has done similar testing, I'd be glad to see your results posted to the list.
