There is a maintenance Plan that runs, which does a full back up once a week of every database. It runs to an RDM with the path B:\Databases\Full<br />
<br />
I have created a new RDM and made the current backup RDM H: and set the new RDM as B:<br />
<br />
My question is the maintenance plan are set to run to &nbsp;B:\Databases\Full, and the new RDM is blank, with no folder structure.<br />
<br />
I have been told that the maintenance job will create the folder structure automatically when it runs at the weekend, I just want to confirm that is the case?

The term "Backup" means the methods and processes involved to copy computer data (system data as well as application data) to media other than the ones where the data originally live (disk, tape, optical, cloud). "Restore" in turn means the methods and processes involved in data recovery, i. e., bringing back copied computer data to their original location. Backup/Restore primarily serves as a means of protection against data loss, be it due to disaster, corruption or sabotage. It can also be used for recovering data from an earlier point in time and even for cloning machines or applications. There is a wide variety of backup/restore software available, from expensive commercial products to free or open source tools.
