Dimitry,

Thanks for your reply. The problem of backing up using gbak is that it is not possible to run incremental backups, right?

By the way, i'm using nbackup 0-level per month and 1-level everyday, replacing the 1-level everyday by the new one. In this approach, if I run nbackup recover using the 0-level and the 1-level backup should I get the latest version of the database?

   No limitations at this level. 56Gb is quite small database.

   Backup by gbak can be much smaller.
