And before the new union contract payment rules were entered.

Excuse me, but is that a valid DR test?  When a fire occurs will it give 
you time to do a complete system save and send it off to your BP?

Ok, I think it's alright for your first iteration.  Then one day should 
come the "ok team, grab the last system save and last night's backup's and 
let's go".  That's when you discover the fun stuff like:
- Gee we added 300 users since the last full system save and we don't have 
them.
- Anyone remember how to configure that printer that we got last week? 
Wasn't that a bear?
- Smitty said that collection of libraries only needed to be saved when we 
do a full system save.  And the last system save was before the set of 
libraries were created.
- What about all the transactions between last night's backup and when we 
headed out today?
