Hi, I am currently backing up complete SharePoint 2010 farm. The backup takes longer and I am just looking to see if I can skip out non-important things. We have only two web applications so I would definetly want to backup those.
I am backing up Admin DB, Search DB, Word automation DB, Web Analytics DB, User Profile DB, and many more...In the event do I really need complete backup...
Any help would be really appreciated.
Thank you

This depends upon the recovery level objective which has been defined in your company.. Company requirements vary & that should let you know what can be considered as "non important"..For egs, some customers skip the Index, but again, this depends upon your company's requirement..This may help you decide - http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=10895
