[Networker] [Off topic] Book giveaway

Hi everyone,

At the start of October, my book "Enterprise Systems Backup andRecovery: A Corporate Insurance Policy" was published.

I've ended up with an additional copy and I'd like to donate it tosomeone on this mailing list. I've enjoyed being a member of this listand the collaborative support network it provides for over a decade,and I'd like to pay that back in part by hopefully passing on aresource that will be helpful to someone.

My book is a mix of both technical information, and management/procedural recommendations for running a backup system, based onexperience I've gathered from consulting roles over the years; it'saimed not just as backup/system administrators, but also their firstline of management as well, to help them understand what they need todo/champion in order to ensure that a company's information systemsare properly protected.

I'll treat this as a bit of a competition; in a paragraph or less,explain let me know what you consider to be the most critical role ofa backup administrator's job; since this isn't technically a NetWorkerrelated topic, feel free to email me directly at: pdeguise AT gmail DOT com.I'll take 'entries' until Friday 24 October, and will contact theperson with the best story on the 25th to confirm shipping details andfind out if they want me to post onto the list who won/etc.


Cheers

Preston.
