Hi All,
I have my databases with hosting company who provide a managed SQL backup.
In addition to this backup I am running a simple maintenance plan locally on the server to keep copies of my database for quick recovery. This way if I just need the database as it was the day before I can get it from the maintenance plan rather than waiting for the hosts to recover from tape.
They host company are telling me that when the maintenance plan runs it affects their managed backup and causes my incremental backups to be promoted to full backups - taking up loads of space on the backup.
Does this sound correct?
Does anyone know of a way to keep my maintenance plan and keep the managed backup only doing incrementals?
Thanks
