If I may add a point.
14. BE SURE TO TEST YOUR BACKUPS. When I say test, that means grab another computer and try to restore your backup to that computer. When you are done, you should have two computers with identical data on them and it should be acceptable to swap one out with the other. For example, I restored our domain controller to another machine, shut down the production domain controller, started up the one I restored, and our network kept on going like nothing ever happened. Results like those should be your goal.
If you have never tried restoring a backup you have made, then you have no proof that it works, nor will you know what you are doing when D-day arrives.
