| Hi Tara, Thank you very much for your reply. I really appreciate your help. If I want to take Native SQL backups of all instances that sit on a single node of a cluster onto the local drive (C:\) of that node and then periodically copy those backups onto a tape using Legato will there be any problems? Is this approach possible on a cluster? (Bcs our company is planning to implement this method) Thanks,YoursSQLBuddy |

| Hi Tara, Thank you very much for your reply. If it is possible I will try to avoid backing up to the local drive. I really appreciate our help.YoursSQLBuddy |
