Zen and the Art of IT Backup

Principle 1 - Scope

Excited, the new apprentice jumped right into his Master’s training server.

The apprentice asked, “Master what files should I backup?”

The Master replied, “Does not the mother bird care for all her fledglings? Will not the shepherd watch over his entire flock? Therefore, one must backup all files in one’s care, no matter how small or insignificant we consider them to be. Each file has its importance and must not be overlooked.”
