With the discussion about backups, I would like to raise a question I have had for some time.
Having backups does no good if you cannot restore them. Files are rather easy to test.
But how do you test restoring a database?
I back it up with the usual tool. I have the docs to do the restore.
But how to test to make sure that restoring works, without clobbering the active database?
Thank you
