Our bat file reads:  "ntbackup backup z:\exchsrvr\tracking.log DS \\curly IS
\\curly  /b /hc:on /t Normal /l C:\winnt\backup.log 
ntbackup eject

z:\exchsrvr is because we are a clustered enviroment, hence Larry, Moe,
Curly, Curly being the virtual node, Larry and Moe are the actual nodes.
Our only problem has been lately is that our store has exceeded tape
capacity, and we have to click on "OK" the next morning to finish up the
backup on the next tape.

sorry, no haiku.

Iron Chef Haiku [1] 
Subtle textures not seen here
And no steeenking rhymes

ntbackup rules
I should say in most cases
Small vexing problem

on just one server
all drives don't go on one tape
space not the issue

when each drive is done
wants new tape for the next drive
command line follows

ntbackup backup c: d: e: ds \\server is \\server /v /r /b /e /l
"d:\backup\backup.log" /hc:on /t normal

/v verify
/r restricts access
/b backs up local registry
/e log includes exceptions only
/l backup log filename
/hc:on Hardware compression on
/t normal (full) backup



not using the slash-a
backup acts like it is there
three drives specified


/a
Causes backup sets to be added or appended after the last backup set on the
tape. When /a is not specified, the program  overwrites previous data. When
more than one drive is specified but /a is not, the program overwrites the
contents of the  tape with the information from the first drive selected and
then appends the backup sets for the remaining drives.


Exchange alone works
Combination doesn't work
Drives alone bite too

NTSP6
Ex55Sp4
hotfixes as well


makes no difference
running comand line or bat
any help out there?

Thanks,
Paul
