I have a question.

We backup the server our depot resides on every night. I told our MIS department to backup the $P4ROOT directory. However, I do not create a checkpoint before each backup. Is it OK for us to just backup the entire directory? Instead is it better to create a checkpoint and backup that file?

Regards, Joe Cotellese
