The need to guard premises to prevent unauthorized people from entering. This also includes safeguarding all relevant data against unauthorized access, using physical access prevention and electronic password protection.

•Types of data that need to be backed up

List the company’s types of data and how you want to combine them in backup specifications, including the time frames available for backups. The company’s data can be divided into categories like company business data, company resource data, project data, and personal data, each with its own specific requirements.

•Backup policy implementation

•How backups are done and the backup options that you use

This defines the frequency of full and incremental backups. It also defines the backup options that are used and whether the backups are permanently protected and the backup media stored at a security company.

•How the client systems are grouped into backup specifications

Consider how best to group backup specifications. This can be done on the basis of departments, data types, or backup frequency.

•How the backups are scheduled

Consider using the staggered approach, whereby full backups are scheduled for different clients (backup specifications) on different days to avoid network load, device load, and time window issues.

•Retaining data on media, and information about backups

Consider protecting data from being overwritten by newer backups for a specified amount of time. This protection, called data protection, is on a session basis.

Define the period of time the Catalog Database should store information about backup versions, the number of backed up files and directories, and messages stored in the database. For as long as this catalog protection has not expired, backed up data is easily accessible.

•Device configuration

Determine devices to use for backups, and the client systems they are connected to. Connect the backup devices to client systems with the largest amount of data, so that as much data as possible is backed up locally and not via the network.

This increases the backup speed.

If you need to back up large amounts of data:

•Consider using a library device.
