Backups & Disaster Recovery
The Chicago SBS User group held an 8-hour meeting yesterday to talk about disaster recovery. How timely! A customer just ordered a new LTO4 autochanger and Backup Exec. The old backup system is nonfunctional and part of my job is to come up with a disaster recovery plan.
Unfortunately, I didn’t find what I was looking for at the meeting. No offense to any members who happen to read this, but it wasn’t nearly technical enough and it got off into tangents about business continuity and non-profits. I only stayed 3 hours, so maybe I missed the good stuff?
A few hours later I ran across this site about using VMWare for disaster recovery - EXCELLENT!
How to use VMWare for disaster recovery
It doesn’t really apply to my client’s needs, but it sure applies to my own setup. What a great idea!!
