I want to be proactive here and I am doing this for another system that I administer so here goes.
I want to take a weekly back up of the SEPM structure so that I can preserve my entire database including sites, structure, GUP structure and exceptions. I want to be able to quickly recover this information if something goes awry. I am now using RU3 and I am going to start upgrading the clients who are primarily Windows 7 64 Bit operating systems, the server are a mix of Windows 2003 (32BIT)/Windows 2008 (64BIT) systems.
I also want to it it that when the database becomes too large that it can automatically be truncated this way I can preserve disk space. Aside from the database itself, where an I go to reduce filesize//foldersize when they become too large?
Thank you in advance.
