First intro to CommVault so excuse the question but, whats recommended for creating schedule policies, we have way too many IMO (typical daily incr.,weekend fulls strategy). Is it best to create them based on a per application basis (all sql servers, project XYZ servers, etc) or just create a policy for 1900 hrs start time, 1930 hrs start, etc...??
 
Hi

Personaly I like to use the schedule policies by splitting them into;-

FileSystem Backups
Database Backups
Exchange Backups

etc..etc
 
We are pretty much like birky:

Exchange Schedule Policy
Infrastructure Schedule Policy
Oracle Dev Schedule Policy
Oracle Prod Schedule Policy

etc
 
Hi Mitsuman:
We built our policies on data frequency. By this I mean how much data is being changed over a period of time. If the data is being changed daily then, a more frequent incremental, followed by a full on the "User down time" We backup over 4 TB each week on 13 servers. As for the "not so volatile" servers where the data is more stable we do only a full backup on a scheduled day. A different day for each non-volatile server.
