comment Advice about Backup Solution
Thanks Thomas. It's not that we can't do a full backup. A full backup or differentials by themselves don't get me much further than the file level. Sounds like I need to talk to them about how long they store the transaction log backups for and make sure I can get a hold of them.

Isnt backup name supposed to be the name of the backup database? Or do I need to specify that it is the backup databases mdf and ldf files respectively?

comment User already exists error
Thank you. I need to talk with the company owners and the director of development to see if this will work. Are there any security pitfalls to scripting this as a backup and restore?
