SQL Logs backup

Hi Experts,

I need some recommendation for SQL backup.
Now I make the backup with Symantec BackupExec and the Agents.
This works well.
Regarding the LOG Backup I have some questions.
I have an incremental Backup and a differential backup of it.
But do I really need a differential backup of the LOGS ? Because each two hours I take a incremental backup.
The FULL backup is every day in the evening.

ok, now I understand.
Of course in SYMANTEC you can have incremental and differential backup jobs of the DB.
I have set up one FULL per day and each 4 hours one DIFF.
But this is not neded more I think.
The LOGs I backup each 2 hours.

This is enaough for us.
 Thanks.
