A tail-log backup? What is this, amateur hour? That's like using a spoon to dig a hole. Log backup all the way, my friends.

I'm just going to go with 'D' and call it a day. Log backups are the way to go, and I'm not overthinking this. Simple and effective, that's my motto.

Hmm, I don't know. A full backup might be overkill, but it would give you the most comprehensive coverage. Decisions, decisions...
