Hi All,

I need a small clarification, one of my databases backup was overwritten on the existing database backup, the script it was with NOINIT and the backup was overwritten twice, is there any way we can restore one from that backup file.

Please suggest.


Thank You All In Advance

If NOINIT is specified, then the backups have been appended. You can restore using the FILE option. Please see the documentation for details.
