Hi all,

I am backing up my domain controllers in the Active Directory using Arcserve
2000. The database files are in C:\winnt and the log files are stored in the
D:\winnt directory.

I performed a full backup every Monday on all partitions (C,D,E,F and G) on
the first domain controller. From Tuesday to Friday, only differential
backups on partitions D to G will be backed up.

In your opinions, do you thing this is a feasible backup configuration in
case if I need to do a disaster recovery on this domain controller?

Thanks to all.
