[Veritas-bu] Verify jobs

no matter what backup software you use,
or the media to which you use it, the best
way to verify a backup is to duplicate the
backup and then off site one of the copies.
however, a verify is better than nothing
especially if restores a few and far between
and you only have one drive;)
