For the best practice I issued full SQL Server database, differential and transaction log backups.  I have setup a process to backup to local disks and then also copy the files to a centralized set of storage.  On a weekly basis the centralized file system is backed up to a tape backup device. I know I can get data off of the tapes, but that process is time consuming, not well tested from my perspective and I am not in control of the overall process.  Can you offer some recommendations from a SQL Server backup retention perspective?
