I used to have a boss that said that "if it's not off-site, it's not a
backup".  And I learned he was right.

He also said that "an untested recovery procedure is no recovery
procedure".  And he budgeted for and maintained a "shadow system" that
was just enough restore from backup media and validate the restored
system.  And I learned he was right about that, too.
