asked on
Recommended frequency for: OS backups, root/boot floppy creation?
As a rule of thumb, how often should I:
1) Take an operating system backup on our SCO OpenServer 5.0.5 box?
2) Create a set of root/boot floppies?
Thanks!

There's more to this question than I thought, seeing these replies; I'm multiplying the point value, and thanks for all the input so far!
Slightly misleading - 'monthlies' actually refers to the fact that I only keep the last weekly backup for each month. So at any one time I can restore to:
Any overnight restore-point from the last five days.
Any Saturday night from the last four weeks.
The last Saturday night of any month up to the last 6 months.
