if you use the SBS wizard to do your tape backup, it will do a full backup
plus a verify, and there is no option to turn off the verify. Also, the tape
does not automatically eject once the back up is complete, and there is no
option to make the tape eject. OTOH, the wizard version will generate an
automatic summary and detail log that can be viewed via a web browsere from
a workstation. Also, you cna configure it to send you an email whenever the
backup fails.
So, as long you can live with verify on, and no tape eject, the wizard
backup is your answer. Otherwise you would nered to use your scripted
version of running NTBackup to control these and any other options.
