Hello, while reading the man pages I realized that there were some suggestions as to how often certain types of tests could be run. Are they arbitrary or can they be used at least as a sensible starting point? Per man pages long test can be run weekly, short test daily, automatic offline immediate could be run per vendor default choice of typically each 4 hours and so on. Well, how often should one run these tests? Any known best practices? Recommendations?
