RE: Planning Test Backup/Recovery

Eriovaldo,

If I were you, I would create a small test database on the production machine, and perform backup/restore of that test database to be sure that everything is working before I would try it on a production database.

Once you are convinced that everything works, schedule a down time where you can test backup/restore of the production database.

I would also keep the test db on the production box, and as a regular monthly schedule, test backup and restore of that database - just to make sure that it continues to work.

Hope this helps.

There should not be any problem to test the backup. However we are testing the restores to another machine, not on the production machine.
