That is a very broad subject. What kind of information are you looking for?

[Bill Hassell]

Do you need information about backing up a single computer? Multiple computers? Multiple computers over a network? Different operating systems over the network? Do you need rapid access to the backup media? Do you need a media indexing system? Do you need data snapshots because of 24x7 operations?

Ok, thanks:

What I need is a kind of chekpoint, or a plan task, to create a backup policy, i know will be hard, and extensive work... I need the best pratices, solutions to make the backup usefull. In a first step will be a theoretical work.

The simplest plan:

Always backup your computer just before you lose your data.

That is of course in jest but it is very difficult to even suggest a plan without knowing your environment. A backup plan for a single home computer is very different from a business that is running a database that must be accurate and quickly recoverable. Questions are: how much data? how many computers? how many tape drives? how often is a full backup and a partial backup done? how to restore data? how to recover a crashed boot disk? hwre are the backup tapes stored? how often are the tapes taken offsite to a safe location?
