Nor will it tell you if your backups are any good. Only a restore will tell you that.

How many folks use this? Is it intensive? What is the recommendation for running this?

Thanks,
Frank

If you use bpverify, it reads the media and compares the contents of the media to the catalog.

It is faster than a restore but Ed is right, it will not tell you if you are backing up the right things.

It should not be affected by changing files on the client though.
