lets say I configure and schedule a backup while logged in as userA. I
configure this backup to run under the user context of userB. I realize the
log file will go to userB's profile which is why I was wondering about this:
will the options I configured while logged in as userA for the backup job
(under tools -> options) stick or will the ones from userB's profile be used
instead?

The backup options are set in a command line which is
clearly visible under the Task Scheduler. I recommend
you examine it in detail so that you become familiar with
it. The backup /? at the Command Prompt to see the
meaning of the various switches.
 
will do. thanks.

Hi,
the command line option uses the /g swich to specify a particular tape
(example below). How do I go about matching up this guid with the physical
tape to verify a match? I didn't see the guid listed in Removable Storage
console.

C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntbackup.exe backup "@C:\backupJobs\monday2.bks" /n
"MONDAY2" /d "MONDAY2 Full Backup" /n "MONDAY2" /v:yes /r:no /rs:no /hc:on
/m normal /j "MONDAY2 Full Backup Job" /l:s /g
"07df5910-5b28-4b28-aca5-dbbac2006d9d"
