How Often Should You Run Backups

Everyone following the Ultimate Guide has made a backup using Clockworkmod. How often is it wise to do this and does it recover the Kryos to its exact configuration like an image backup on a PC?

Thanks
Bob

Where does Clockworkmod put the recovery file. I have looked through the SD card and internal storage without finding it.

It is a full image recovery. In the clockworkmod directory.

/sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/<date>/*

it seems to be the same as if you ran this from a terminal emulator:
Code:
dd if=/dev/<mtd_for_boot> of=/sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/<date>/boot.img bs=4096
dd if=/dev/<mtd_for_system> of=/sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/<date>/system.img bs=4096
etc...
etc...

so, the img's it makes are raw images of the mtd's.
