How often should the gst database for NMC be backed up? Should it be backed up after or before the server runs its own backup?

Is this even necessary? I'm not really interested in any of the reports or logs that are contained in there. As far as I know, everything I need is either contained in the /nsr/logs directory, which gets backed up when the server runs its normal backups (every day) or the bootstrap, which also gets backed up by the server's regular group. If I needed to rebuild the resource database, it would be a DR scenario, requiring the bootstrap, correct? I mean, all the group, schedule, client, device configuration information, etc. - basically everything I see under NMC - is in the resource database which is captured with the bootstrap, right?

Thanks.

George
