More that you are applying an "all or nothing" for the policy to all objects, meaning that the predicates are one big group. If I needed to have a separate...

Sorry, got busy and forgot about this.

I think if things are related, it's good to have them in one policy, so that you see them. If you start to have...

Same here, I ran across this and learned something. I want to do more spatial questions, but it's hard because I am busy with things, and this is complex topic.

Management is concerned, and trying to engage people. Certainly many of us are introverts, but there is a difference between enjoying your own company, but being in social areas, and...

Only a restore, as John noted, tests this. That is only at that point in time, and later the file might get corrupted, especially during copying, but doing this regularly...

success is for the job. The parts of the job might have issues, but depending on your proc, you might report success. Seeing the proc will help, but honestly, there...

Performance is more variable. You could read about the differences there. You also don't have the same control. You can't see hardware, and must work on any issues with looking...

You'd have to provide more info about how the job is running and scheduled. SQL Server backups should not interfere with workload, nor should workload interfere with them. Not sure...

No real timeline for any of these. It's just  a set of things I'm trying to tackle. Not all on this day.

I have a few others, but need to find...
