This beast does not exist. You can use the Database Maintenance Plans in EM to manage your backups. I have found these to be flaky and prefer writing my own custom backup plans in scripts and schedule these as jobs. From my experience on SQL Server I recommend doing a native SQL Server backup to disk, then have the third party backup software pickup those files to tape. Just my $.02

Hi good people-
anyone out there know of the equivalent of oracle's RMAN in MS SQL server environs. I'm investigating the possibility of having my SQL server dump the backups direct to a third party tape library -VERITAS to be specific.

Your input on this thread will be highly appreciated.

CSW Simon.
