Yes, that's a wicked tight window you have!  My backup window is
wider--about 1700-0700, so I go ahead and let the copies run hourly all
night.

I think I could survive the TDP failures; our DBAs allocate enough log
space that the databases can survive the odd TDP failure.  I never have
been able to understand the MAXNUMMP business, though.  I asked about it

but I still couldn't get my head around it.  I guess I'm just thick.
