I have this question, it sound not too wise but I want to prove it to someone it's not right. Any way, I took over this client and I asked them how they run their back up. The answer I got from them is they backup the whole server every Sunday, and incremental every night. Is that right to do ??? I thought we have to backup the database to somewhere say a disk on different location and then backup that disk.

Please let me know it's right to backup the whole server. What is the advantage& disadvantage of backing up the whole server ??? What is the consequence when we try to recover ??? Please give me as much senerios as possible.

thanks
