Hi everyone. I'd like to do a sanity check on a restore from ontape for an IDS 9.4 database if that's ok.....I have an IDS 9.4 database that has level 0's done on Sunday 1AM EST, and then subsequent level 1 backups Mon-Sat 1AM EST.... I need to restore the database to it's state as of last Thursday, Nov at 9:00 AM EST... To do this I think I need to restore the Level 0 from Sunday Nov 23rd followed by the level 1 that was done on Wednesday Nov 26, followed by the logs that were backed up following the Wednesday night level 1...does this sound about right? Just looking for sanity confirmation....Thanks

Ok, this was a dumb question-I admit. The answer to my question is yes. I was just being paranoid. Sorry.
