Hi

Normally, you don't do monthly or yearly backups. However, you can do 
long-term archiving, for economical or law regulations. This is normally 
done by having different archive management classes, where you save for 
perahaps 12 month, or 10 years.

Versions of data to keep depend on the type of data. I normally separate 
fileserver data from for example application server data. Also, separating 
"\program files" and other system files, from user data is another way of 
customizing your backup system. You normally don't want to save 15 
versions of your NT installation. However, you might want to save 15 
versions of your Word documents.

But, in the long run, it all depend on the data that you're going to 
backup.

Best Regards
