We can install SQL server but the problem is the configuration can be different from the original. we looking forward if the base backup/archive client and OFM can deliver the full image backup of SQL server (including based applications and physical database files). So, incase of corruptions, we can able to restore completely, then, restore using TDP of SQL the latest backup of database/transaction logs.
is it possible? thanks.... -----Original Message----- From: Del Hoobler [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, January 07, 2002 5:45 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Open file for TSM > Hi Andy, > > How about the SQL data files?

Is this TDP for SQL Server can do the recover without > installing the based application? Zosimo, TDP for SQL protects the database files and their transaction logs only. It does not protect the SQL Server application files. The base backup/archive client can be used to protect those files. In the event of a disaster, where the SQL Server application is corrupted, you can re-install SQL Server, and then restore your databases via TDP for SQL.
