CORRECT ANSWER!
Here are some other questions you should further ask yourself:
- Are you able to restore the data that you have been backing up?
- Are you testing to insure that the data is making it to the backup media?
- Is the backed up data good for long periodds of time and does it remain on the media you use to back up your data?
- If you loose your hardware that you are backing up or it is destroyed, what is your contingency for having additional hardware to restore the data that you have backed up on?
Food for thought!
