We are using two-tier backup schemes during data collection and again for the primary data repository.

==PDA Backup==
== Laptop ==
The data on the PDA is to be backed up manually using [[PDA Backup using Sprite Backup|Sprite Backup]] at least before each sync, but preferrably more often. Additionally, each sync generates a copy in the backup directory of the given location's directory under L_Handbase on the regional server, e.g.
* [[News and backup]]
*\\sbghnwfs0102\NSSVOL1\shared\ICU_DATA_COLLECTION\L_HanDBase\GRA_MICU\backup
* see [[CCMDB data.mdb restore from Regional Server]]
This location will keep the copies for the most recent '''ten''' syncs. The data for older syncs is discarded.
Since the 10 sync copies are stored on the regional server, this provides off-site backup.  


==Primary Data Repository Backup==
== Centralized data Backup ==
The primary data repository is quasi backed up because copies of it always exist on at least all the PCs in the home office at HSC.  
[[Centralized_data.accdb]] and [[PHI.mdb]] live on an eHealth server and so are backed up by them ([[#eHealth file shares]]). We also created dated snapshot backups every time the [[data processor]] pulls data as part of [[vetting]] and then pushes it again. For details, see
In addition to this, [[Pagasa Torres|Pagasa]] runs a batch file weekly that copies the data to the network.

Centralized data Backup

Centralized_data.accdb and PHI.mdb live on an eHealth server and so are backed up by them (#eHealth file shares). We also created dated snapshot backups every time the data processor pulls data as part of vetting and then pushes it again. For details, see

Centralized backup locations

Following directories:

  • M:\​Backup\Centralized_data (full address: \\ad.wrha.mb.ca\wrha\HSC\shared\WRHA\WRHA_CCMED\Backup\Centralized_data)
  • M:\​Backup\PHI (full address: \\ad.wrha.mb.ca\wrha\HSC\shared\WRHA\WRHA_CCMED\Backup\PHI)
  • S:\MED\Med_CCMED\​CCMDB\PHI\PHI_CSV_ArchiveS:\MED\Med_CCMED\CCMDB\PHI\PHI_CSV_Archive

Retention

We only retain backups for a time. See Culling backups for details.

eHealth file shares

All our file shares are backed up by eHealth. To restore any files missing from a file share contact the help desk. Their retention schedule as of 2019-12 is:

Daily Bi-Weekly Monthly
Data Category Backup Type Retention Period Backup Type Retention Period Backup Type Retention Period
DEFAULT - ALL local drives (default excludes below data categories) I 4W     F 6M
File Shared I 4W     F 12M
Databases I 2W F 4W    
Virtual Machines I 4W     F 6M
