Hi guys,

I just saw this and decided it is so awesome (as someone told me this one featured paid for an alternative backup product).

Put simply, Marina Roos has documented a 2 minute process to add e-mail alerts when backups succeed.  The details can be found at http://www.smallbizserver.net/Default.aspx?tabid=266&articleType=ArticleView&articleId=143

At the same time, I was asked in the forums about compression of tapes and I found Sean Daniels blog, which had a auto tape changing scripts in it.  The article can be found at http://seanda.blogspot.com/2004/10/sbs-2003-backup-hack_05.html

enjoy the new week
