RE: Brick Level Backups

sure.  when you restore a mailbox from brick-level backup, you break SIS.  That takes up MORE diskspace, which makes that much more space vulnerable to corruption.

Subject: RE: Brick Level Backups

Just as a followup, I typically do both full backup and brick level[1], time/space permitted. I have done so many restores of corrupted mailboxes[2] in enviornments and have never had an issue[3] up to now.  I have seen some weird things in large stores like 20+gig, and being able to not take the entire thing down has been a pleasent experience[4]. I know people dont recommend it, but is there any reason why restoring a mailbox from brick would cause more corruption?
