5507.3 Other Backup Titbits
-
Historically the major cause of Muli Servers not be available is "equipment theft".
-
Backups should not be stored in the same location as the server - they can both be stolen or lost in a fire.
-
Nightly backup means you may need to find & reprocess the days transactions in the event of system failure.
-
Sometimes users take a couple of days to understand there has been a corruption of data. Need for depth. Not just last night.
-
Purchasing new components, Setting up the server, Downloading the backup, re-entering user password and reprocessing last days transactions takes time.
