Having an issue with NT Backup Utility.
My assumption is that NT Backup is designed to backup to one tape/media only. The problem I am having is that the NT Backup names all tapes with the same name after a backup is complete. This becomes a problem when trying to restore because NT Backup asks for a tape, of which we have seven with the same name, so it may take seven times to find the right tape with the right file to restore. Has anyone had this or a similar issue?
Is there a way to name each tape correctly? Do I have to create a new job for each day? Does anyone know of a better (free) Backup Utility that can be used in a business environment?
