SQL Server Backup Question

Former Member
Former Member $organization

Back when our site was first installed (before my time), our production SQL Server was setup to be backed up using Symantec Backup Exec.  We run a weekly full backup, and nightly incremental backups.  The database was also configured to use the simple recovery model.

I'd like to change part of this - I want to move to the full recovery model and start doing SQL Server backups (and obviously transaction log backups).  I don't want to stop the Backup Exec backups (if it's not broken, don't fix it!).

Can I run both Backup Exec and SQL Server backups at the same time (with the database set to full recovery) without messing up the transaction log backups?

The research I've done implies I can, however I thought I'd ask the experts here.

Thanks in advance.

    We carry out both Backup Exec and SQL Server Backups with no problems.   They both run from different services so doesn’t cause any conflict.

     

    Thanks
