Guest Jeff Posted January 13, 2008 Posted January 13, 2008 I am concerned that all my data is not being backed up when the it shows 20gb and it should be closer to 140gb http://s129.photobucket.com/albums/p202/JeffatICS/?action=view¤t=concerned.png any thoughts? Thanks
Guest Ryan Hanisco Posted January 14, 2008 Posted January 14, 2008 RE: Backup compression 7.15 : 1 ? Hi Jeff, I would agree that it doesn't look right. Of course, the question is whether there were any errors on the backup (open files and the like), what the files there are (if they're all text files, then the compression might be right), of if they are application files that rely on padding and whitespace. I'd look into these to see if there is a logical explanation. Other than these, thought, I would expect that you are missing data. -- Ryan Hanisco MCSE, MCTS: SQL 2005, Project+ http://www.techsterity.com Chicago, IL Remember: Marking helpful answers helps everyone find the info they need quickly.
