I want to know if there is a way to do an automated restore using NT 4.0's ntbackup. I want to verify that i can read information from a backup set after the backup.
Does anyone have any suggestions

Hi
I'm not sure if I understand your question.
You can't perform a restore or you want something like a scheduled task? What you want to automated?

I use other backup program which have options to schedule tasks.
With NT Backup you can:
-enable check box.
-check with your vendor the life time of tapes
-store the tapes in a dark, constant temperature, clean place and with no electromagnetic fields.
-perform cleaning procedure (use a cleaner tape).
Maybe others have an idea for your issue or buy a Backup program.

Every night we run an automatic backup of our NT Servers using NT Backup.
What I want to do is to preform an autmatic restore of a select few files to verify that the backup tape set is good.
In the morning i will review these files to see that that got restored to an alternate location. I want a way to speed up verification that I have I good backup. I have run into the problem where my backup log (which is generated by the autmatic backup) shows a good backup, however, when I've tried to restore data from them two days latter i get a message that it cant restore certain files if any.
Right now i have to manually load the tape and select which files to do a test restore on.
