Safeguarding an appliance.

Hi All,

What is the best procedure for safeguarding an appliance? I realize that the internal boot disk uses a RAID configuration but what is the best way to safeguard against someone typing rm -r * in the / directory of the appliance. 

Would it just be a re-image?

Can I backup the internal disk to anywhere?

I know that the catalogie is safe internally on its own section of disk. 

I have looked in the documentation and couldn't find anything in detail. Just wondered what everyone else is doing out there? If there is a procedure written somewhere?

Kind Regards,

Leo.
