Yes the windows Backup, Archive and Restore GUI works well for this.
You can use both "standard" and "calendar" mode to do restores and
select individual jobs or "everything since <date>." The GUI
automatically restores the most recent version of all files - you don't
have to run separate jobs for the full, then each incremental.

You only have to issue 1 restore. NetBackup does all the work.=20
Simply give it the timeframe and it will restore the
latest/greatest file from that timeframe.=20
Hopefully you will select the last full as the start point and
the current time as the end point.

Also Justin, in a restore process, it should be the last Full
plus last Incr to recover. (Cumulative)
Many people don't do cumulative, but differential, and when you
do differential you need to restore, in order, each differential going
in order 17th 18th 19th etc..

Hmmm... well what I do is this......

Weekly Full Backups around 1 month
Incr Backups 3 weeks
Month End backups set for 12 month retention!
=20
With the settings you have, my guess is your Catalog
Backups are going to grow quite fast :-)

Also Justin, in a restore process, it should be the last

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Retention Period Question
=09
=09
Our corporate retention policy for data is
60days guaranteed.
=20
How should I setup my retention periods?
=20
Currently we run a FULL every 4 weeks and a
Differential Incremental every day.
=20
I have 60 days set for the incremental and 90
days set for the full. I am not sure if this setting is correct. I
need to guarantee 60 days of data at all times. I am afraid that the
earlier FULL is needed to do a restoration if the the file has not been
picked up by the incrementals.=20
=20
Any suggestions?
