ntbackup scheduling issue
Hi,
I need to use ntbackup on Windows Server 2003 SBS to backup both exchange and flat files. I've used the built-in scheduler to create 2 separate backup jobs. I need 2 separate backup jobs because I'm backing up exchange to a file on 1 array and the other backup onto a different array. The problem i am finding is that it appears that when creating the 2nd scheduled backup job it wipes out the 1st. I also find it a problem to edit a job once its created. Is this an inherent limitation with ntbackup? Should I be looking at 3rd party backup software? I'd rather not go to the cost but if I have to...
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

This solution is only available to members.
To access this solution, you must be a member of Experts Exchange.
I would reccommed a 3rd party solution especially if your backing up Exchange files which may be in use when your backup runs.....
