Hi
I am in the process of moving servers and the restore time of the 53GB
backup is a going to cause a timing problem
I have made a level 0 backup of the database, 53GB, I would like to
restore the level 0 backup in the meantime, and on the night of the
server swap do a level 1 backup which will be less than a 1GB, and
restore that backup on it's own, effectively adding the data missing
since the level 0 backups was made
Will this be possiblem, is a level 1 backup valid to restore without the
corresponding level 0 backup?
Thanks in advance
Gary
