Append in an existing backup

how append in existing backup???
i have normal scheduled backup runs every day in lto. way:  

c:\winnt\system32\ntbackup.exe backup "@c:\rotinas\backupscript\backupdiario.bks" /d "backup diario" /v:no /r:no /snap:on /rs:no /hc:on /m normal /j "backupdiario" /l:s /p "lto ultrium" /um


after i'd append files in same lto, not manually. problem how make schedule recognize lto of same day???

thanks,

hi denise_f,

 

because "/um" doesn't support append mode, please refer "managed method" in following kb article

 

how schedule unattended backups using stand-alone tape library

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314844/en-us

 

the general steps:

 

1. prepare tape.

 

2. write label each tape. "monday" "sunday".

 

3. create scheduled backup job backup data fixed name.

 

below example append data without overwriting current data on tape.

 

c:\winnt\system32\ntbackup.exe backup "@c:\documents , settings\exchmgr\local settings\application data\microsoft\windows nt\ntbackup\data\ntexhpsg26-daily tapebk.bks" /n "mondy-full" /d "monday full backup" /v:no /r:no /rs:no /hc:on /m daily /j "ntexhpsg26-daily tapebk" /l:f /p "lto ultrium" /t "monday-full"

 

please note: in windows 2000 server.

 

1. if tape not empty, must have name in "/t" parameter. otherwise, system not write tape.

 

2. if don't need append tape, use "/um" directly.

 

hope helps.
