Doubt about data recovery!!!!!

  • Hi friends,

    Suppose i have database of size 450gb

    Backup of this database takes 3hrs to complete.

    and users finish there working by 7:00PM daily

    if i start backup at 5:00 PM it will finish at 8:00PM.

    how much data is recoverable?

    is it upto 5:00PM or 8:00PM?

    Don't run behind the success, Try to be eligible & success will run behind u......

  • Short answer: the backup is transactionally consistent to the point when it finished (8pm).

    Longer answer: consider this thread: http://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic958470-391-1.aspx#bm958540
