ADSM employs an "incremental forever" backup paradigm.  However, we'll be
performing maintenace on a client this weekend, and so the there will be a
increased risk of data loss.  Would it be prudent to take a selective
rather than an incremental backup in anticipation of that maintenance?  Has
anyone adopted this practice?

Thanks.
Mark.
