All
A general chit -chat question really. I discovered a project where it holds 500mb Data and was NOT backed up !

The only reason this came to light was due to a problem on the Server, when the NBU Admin realised it had not been backed up (but should have been).

Looking at the history, it was backed up, but somehow its been removed from a Policy. Luckily, the fault was rectified and all data was recovered intact.

Question is this - who is responsible for ensuring any new Servers get backed up into your Backup Environment? Sometimes I think its easy to blame the NBU admin, but how do they know what should or should not be backed up.

Does anyone have any process or routine in place or regular checks with their System Admins to make sure the backup client lists have not changed or need new servers backed up?

Regards

Simon
