Good idea. I feel comfortable with that.
Thank you for the suggest!

If I was in your shoes, I'd make a one time ghost image of the server
with the Datastore (as it is now). Then schedule a Task to run DSMAINT
BACKUP backing those files to tape.

Subject: [THIN] PS4 Recovery
What is the simplest yet safe way to backup Citrix PS4 servers? I am
running a small PS4 farm using the Access datastore. I am using a ghost
image to deploy new servers on identical hardware (the ghost image is of
a server who is not the datastore).
Would it be possible to recovery from any farm failure using a
combination of the ghost image and the nightly datastore backup? I've
moved the access datastore between servers before but what if the
datastore was down. I'd ghost a new server and would I be able to take
the nightly backup of the access datastore and place it on the server
and make it a the datastore? Once the new datastore was online then I'd
just point the still running servers at the new datastore?
How is everyone else handling this? I would appreciate any advice on
this. I had been taking a full backup of the datastore server nightly
but I really don't have the tape space for this.
