Berserk Posted June 26, 2003 Report Share Posted June 26, 2003 I have inherited a network without any forth coming information from the previous admin. I have figured out how to run Retrospect for backups without a manual...(imagine that). I am running revolving sets, one for each day of the week Monday thru Friday. I write a new script every week, purge the catalogues, and forget the sets. (realizing that Ican rebuild a catalogue from a snapshot. The Friday tapes are revolving in themselves, 5 tapes, one for each Friday so every Friday sees a new tape so we can look back a month if need be. every day I erase a tape (mon thru thurs) and rename it: "1-Monday A" (for example). every Friday I name a tape "1-Friday A" which are marked 1 to 5 on a log (and the tape itself). Q: Am I doing good? Q: Is there a better way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
