Because I can only perform FULL backups to the NAS from one sql server per day and the offsite backup collection is on Thursday morning, I really need a fresh backup of the databases going to the USB drive.
Copying an existing FULL backup would be okay but it could be well over a week old.
I will try the with COPY_ONLY and see how it goes.
Cheers for the input.

It takes a minimal capacity for rational thought to see that the corporate 'free press' is a structurally irrational and biased, and extremely violent, system of elite propaganda.

Society has varying and conflicting interests; what is called objectivity is the disguise of one of these interests - that of neutrality. But neutrality is a fiction in an unneutral world. There are victims, there are executioners, and there are bystanders... and the 'objectivity' of the bystander calls for inaction while other heads fall.
