Hello there everyone,

Im just getting my feet wet real good with SourceGear Vault and had a question that I am seeking input on.

I noticed the Admin tool will let you create backups.

Is there any advantage to using the backup feature of the Admin tool over using the standard SQL 2000 backup functions?

In times past I have used other application software that had internal backup features but I typically would not use them, leaving my backups to the ones generated at the system or database level instead. Just thought I would ask here and see what other users of SourceGear Vault thought.
 
The Admin tools backup is just a front end to the SQL backup system - you should be able to back up the SQL DB direct without any problems.
 
Ive never used the backup feature present in SourceGear Vault. I think for the most part its there for the users who arent adept with Microsoft SQL Server. I find it much easier to schedule automated daily backups with Enterprise Manager (or the command line).

I know this isnt the exact answer you were looking for, but touch cookies. :)
