Hi! Ups. Me too!
There's a little problem (or I don't know a better solution): I need an automatical backup (e.g. every weekend a fullbackup). So I don't want to be prompted for a new filename... I've setup a media-group with about 10 backup-devices. They're parallel filled but not for performance reasons. Only to avoid the prompt for a new filename... Now it's possible to save an instance of max. 64GB. But we would like to put our datawarehouse in the SAP DB. And it's pretty huge. 64GB is approximatly a third.
