Probably the easiest would be to make a copy of the monthly master and store the copy off site. A better option might be to do a full backup weekly and incrementals each night. At the end of the week, take the entire set and store it off site. Bring the previous weeks backup back on site to reuse the tapes.

Right now we are a small place (less than 50 employees total), and I am not comfortable with the current Disaster Recovery plan (it was created before I came on board). It basically involves performing a master backup on tape once a month and then doing a differential backup every week night. We have 2 sets of differential tapes that we keep off site and alternate every week, but the masters are not kept off site. I am working with a very limited budget. Can anyone recommend a good solution that will ease my worries? Thanks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ --- Ethical Hacking at the InfoSec Institute.
