How often should I backup my vCenter DB?

[theblackknight]

What are people using out there for Vcenter DB backup frequency?

Depending on your environment, once a week is usually enough. If you feel like you require more protection or want to keep the logs tiny, daily should not cost you much either, considering the size of the DB.

we back our up nightly, but it all depends.

Here's a good whitepaper as well
