    An accounting application uses a SQL server.

    I am going to use two SQL servers for this application. These two SQL
    servers are sync between them.

    Each night, a copy of the SQL database is copied to a network share, and
    then the backup program, ARCserve, will back up the database on the network
    share nightly.

    Is this approach a best practice? Any pointers/comments/suggestions are
    greatly appreciated.

    Thanks,
