I am trying to find the best way to make sure that I have a good disaster revovery plan. I already set up SQL Backups full and diff etc. From my class two weeks ago (admin 2) it seems the best way to be able to bring your data back though is to do a data export and then import. Is there anyway to automate this on a schedule or do I need to have my junior admins just do this every day ?
Thanks,
