2 more important ones ( in my view )

- you just noticed 1 or more of your systems has been cracked for
  a day or possibly 2 months

	- what do you do ?

	- if you say "re-install", your interviewed jsut ended
	in about 2 minutes from that comment

- your system crashed, you found your full backups but it's corrupted
  ( *.tgz ) and failed it's full backup on sunday ..

	( i assume you know how to tell if your full backups failed or not )

	- what do you do ?

	- "oh well" will also end your interview :-)

	- how do you setup backups so that you don't care if full backups
	  failed last week or last few months

	- let's say the data you need to backup is (full) 20TB of corp data
