<h1 class="topictitle1">Rotate tapes and other media</h1>
<div><p>An important part of a good save procedure is to have more than one set
of save media. When you perform a recovery, you may need to go back to an
old set of your media if one of the following is true: </p>
<ul><li>Your most recent set is damaged.</li>
<li>You discover a programming error that has affected data on your most recent
save media.</li>
</ul>
<div class="p">At a minimum, rotate three sets of media, as follows: <pre>Save 1 Set A
Save 2 Set B
Save 3 Set C
Save 4 Set A
Save 5 Set B
Save 6 Set C</pre>
</div>
<p>And so on.</p>
<p>Many installations find that the best approach is to have a different set
of media for each day of the week. This makes it easy for the operator to
know which media to mount.</p>
