NTBACKUP command line switches

jbriggy

Hi all,

I ran across this studying the MSpress book, but havent come across it elsewhere. Have any one of you all been tested on command line switches for ntbackup?

NTBACKUP backup "backup_path" /J "jobname" /F "save_location"
to use for example.

Let me know, as i'm trying to determine how much focus I should put on this.

Thanks

I don't remember getting any questions on command line switches using NTBackup but I guess they're worth knowing just in case.

You'll probably be fine with just the basic switches.
The important thing to keep in mind is that restores cannot be performed via the ntbackup cmd, as they'll probably try to get you in that trap.
