Suggestion: Database Backup Path

Just noticed that there appears to be no way to set the backup directory for the database (at least that I could find). The default is C:\Winsows\System32 which apart from being a strange choice is also a bit annoying, as my C: drive only have enough free space for about three backups.... Any possib...

Client CAL Packs

Something else to consider

Something else that is worth doing if you have a large database, which I found speeds up the process substantially is to archive off sections of the source VSS db, then restore them to a fresh VSS DB on the import machine, and import that fresh DB. I had a large (> 2Gb) VSS DB, and progressively arc...
