Guys, I work for an organization with a budget that is somewhat constricted by ancillary forces so please bear that in mind.
Here's my scenario: I'm in a building with one domain controller and one file server. I have a tape drive connected to the file server and I'm using windows to organize by backup process. Basically, I ran a normal or full backup of the user's shares, relevant software and the system state. Then on Friday I scheduled an incremental backup after hrs and these backups will be appended to the full backup. The tapes are 72gbs and the normal backups were approximately 8-10gbs. We really don't have an offsite storage center unless I take the tapes home. I know some of you may have more complex backup solutions but will this get the basic job done or do you guys forsee problems. Thanks in advance.
