I'm trying to adjust my DC's backup plan. I believe we're backing up more
than we need to. Currently we backup the entire C drive which is where the
OS is installed. Do I need to backup the entire C drive? Couldn't I just
backup the thesystem state which would contian the sysvol direcotry which is
the active directory information? ALso this DC contians all of the operation
master roles, is a dns and wins server and runs dhcp. This server is a
windwos 2000 SP4 DC in a 2000 domain. I'm trying to develop a plan to
minimize space used in terms of backup yet with the ability to recover from a
disaster. My thought of most of the info on C relates to the OS which would
be reinstalled if the server crashed anyways. Am I totally off base here?
