Can't remember Windows XP backup Switches, help!

[Guest]

Hey There,

I am working with the Windows backup utility and I we want to make a
scheduled backup to backup to a tape drive nightly, however, the time comes
and goes and nothing happens. If we do a manual backup it works fine. The
last time I had this issue a gent on this forumn helped me out with couple of
switches that force the backup to take place and just reformat the tape
before every time it backed up. Anyway, if anyone can help me out with these
switches it would be great. I think they were something like /m /u.
Something like that. Any help is appreciated.

Answered my own question with a little sleuthing. the switch was /um and
needs to be at the end of the command line of the ntbackup that is scheduled.
yay me.
