Somehow I had a database corruption and I did not know how to restore from backup. It was a bad experience until I saw that it worked. Make regular and check your backups.

PBS verification is only a checksum of file integrity. If somehow the backup was zero-length, or was otherwise corrupt, the verification would succeed but the backup would be useless. How often you do file or full restores is up to you, but required for actual verification.
