Closed Vault Partitions - Backup advice

Backup Exec 12.5

We have over 4TB of Archives that are currently in Closed Vault Partitions, we currently backup weekly these along with the Open Partition.

Is there any reason we can't just backup the Open Partitions weekly and the Closed ones on a less frequent cycle, Monthly for instance or even 6 monthly. We do use CAB Collections and users can delete items from their Archive

 

Thanks

Jon

absolutely you can backup the closed partitions less frequently and monthly sounds like a good place to go from weekly. make sure your backup retention is set to a longer period then your backup frequency! i would also recommend backing up the open partition on a daily basis.
