Backup Database SmartGuide -- Availability



Use the Availability page of the Backup Database SmartGuide to indicate when the database is in use. Your answer affects how often your database should be backed up and what type of backup should be used. Choose the option that best represents your business conditions. Even if your database is not available exactly eight hours a day, but you can stop it for service at least once a day, select the 5 days a week 8 hours a day option. Similarly, if your database can only be stopped once a week, select the 5 days a week 24 hours a day option.
