Which of the following would be considered a GFS backup solution?
I think the answer should be B. Monthly backups are the full backups, weekly are the differential, and daily are the incremental backups (Acronis explains and uses this method).
The answer is C:
The grandfather – father – son schedule is the most widely used method, and involves backing up data in the following way:
daily – on the “son tapes”
weekly – on the “father tapes”
monthly – on the “grandfather tapes”
This system is far more powerful than the five tape rotation, but requires more tape
