This is the fundamental concept, we backup in a certain was so that if there is a data failure we can restore. If you need to restore a system to a particular date,and you use incremental backups The first part of the restoration is to get the backup file that we first complete as it contains every file. The next setup is to get hold of the incremental backup of the point in times the original full backup files were taken and when it is run it will over-right all files from base line full functionality to current required date. The expression "we backup so that we CAN restore" is covered more precisely in data security. The expression is based upon the issue if you are not correctly backing up you you can Never recover and hence the money you put into back is useless. The expression is timeless and covered in detail in data centre which have to be able to loose all data and then restore to a designated point in time. Scott :-) Carlos E. R. wrote:

You only back or-order to restore - How do you fully restore and incremental backup if you loose the first file? Scott
Sorry, I don't understand what you say :-?
What is "back or-order to restore"?
