/ website backups
A complete backup of the eeiccourses website is made daily by Engineering Web Services.
EEIC can request that a complete eeiccourses backup be made and delivered to us at any time – the file is a ~2GB Windows file in a typical Windows folder system.
We should request and preserve a complete backup of eeiccourses no less than twice per semester – once near the start and again after the end of finals.
These backups should be stored in an appropriate folder on the Projects Drive.
