Nimesa Software based Data protection and copy data management solution supports Microsoft SQL Server full backup and log backup, recently we got a customer request why Nimesa is skipping the Simple recovery model database during log backup
Simple recovery model
The following features are not supported by SQL Server if your database is in Simple recovery model
- Log shipping
- Always On or Database mirroring
- Media recovery without data loss
- Point-in-time restores
Under the simple recovery model, after each backup, the database is exposed to potential work loss if a disaster were to occur. The work-loss exposure increases with each update until the next backup, when the work-loss exposure returns to zero and a new cycle of work-loss exposure starts. Work-loss exposure increases over time between backups.
