Data protection is a funny thing. You think just backing up the data is what it is all about. Well, it is also about what you backup, where you back up to and how you recover and a big part of that lies in the meta data. Not protecting the metadata can lead to failures in recovery.  As important as protecting it, is making sure a copy of your metadata is off site for DR purposes.  Listen to Sean, Tricia, Randy and Steve discuss the protection of meta data.
