Thank you very much for your answers!
When restoring, is the chain of backups determined then, or is it recorded in the catalog or backup files? By that I mean, does the director calculate which backups to use by looking at the timestamp on each and assuming that the incremental following a previous backup must be incremental relative to that backup? Or, is there somewhere recorded the time stamp which each incremental/differential is relative to? For example: Say I have a full backup called A, and three incrementals called B,C & D. If I removed C, would a restore job restore A, then B then stop because C is missing, or would it continue with D because D is the next successful backup? I'm assuming here that the catalog and volumes are in sync. The madman who removed C removed the volume and the records from the DB.
Thanks again for your help. You rule!
