Speaking of reimport, I've always found it a chore to find the media
containing expired images. I remember it being very easy in NetWorker (Legato)
as it was simply a matter of running a query of the backup which ID'ed the
media, then performing the required import. How does one do query part
Thanks guys (Jeff and Joseph) ... what you say regarding the restores make
sense. I suppose I went off on a tangent as this discussion reminded me of a
similar incident. We were surprised about the unexpected size of a client's

I would have expected NBU to *keep* the info about the full backup until the
