nothing that ever gets on coin talk goes for good. Peter has a state of the are backup process that he implemts and thank god for that its so good that it can also be used for disaster recovery in compnies
One small problem with that spock - your scenario would only be valid if a backup of every individual day existed - it doesn't. So once an image is removed and a backup is completed of the data for the day that image was removed - that new backup replaces the old backup and the image is gone. Just like yours is now.
well i was given to understand that there were partial backups withthe scenario youmentioned and then there were complete backups that were nevr overwritten coz if you overwrote them and a problem existed for several days then it would lead ot a lot of trouble and the forum would be hosed but perhaps Peter can enlighten me withthe process he is following now.
