Disaster Recovery is the process, policies and procedures of restoring operations critical to the resumption of business, including regaining access to data (records, hardware, software, etc.), communications (incoming, outgoing, toll-free, fax, etc.), workspace, and other business processes after a natural or human-induced disaster.   Here are a few things that you must follow, if you are going in for Disaster Recovery;   If a product fails to deliver, don't be left holding the short end of the stick. Make sure your service contracts or customer agreements protect you. Disaster recovery and business continuity are two distinct items; many try to lump them together as one solution, but each...

We all have to address disaster recovery (DR) at various levels, but we typically must apply the technology to fit rigid parameters — such as less cost or functionality — instead of being able to do it right. But what if you didn’t have any limitations to hold you back? How would you create the perfect DR model? Here are some things (however unrealistic) that might go into building the perfect environment for meeting DR requirements. #1: The network is transparent Providing transparent network connectivity is our number one challenge in making the ideal DR environment. If subnets for data center components were designed to be available across multiple locations without reliance on one piece...

When mainframe data is lost, corrupted or cannot be accessed quickly, it can be catastrophic. People typically associate 'threats to business continuity' with disasters such as hurricanes, floods or terrorist attacks. These calamitous events can wipe out entire data centers, severely disrupting business. But other types of events, such as human errors, application errors, and delays in reacting to changing conditions in the mainframe environment can also disastrously disrupt business continuity. Human errors can wipe out critical data. Application errors can stuff erroneous data into business-critical databases. A delay in responding to a change, such as a spike in workload, can drag down t...

Potential database system failures and Recovery Plans Developing a disaster recovery plan is essential for any SQL Server database environment, but writing an adequate plan is hard work. I've made starting the task a bit easier for myself by stepping through a relatively complete list of the potential database system failures. In this month's column, we'll walk through such a checklist of potential failures—from the most catastrophic failures to the more benign. The idea is to use this list as a starting point for creating your own disaster recovery plan. Although this list might cover all of the possible failures for a given site, and it might include conditions that don't apply to your si...

If you have deleted partitions by accident, do not create another partitions, just leave it blank.   If you have deleted files from the recycling bin and you realize you needed it, do not save anything to that drive. Because Hard drives do not actually erase data or partitions. When you erase a file from the operating system, it just marked on the drive as deleted. When your system needs to store more data on that drive, it will consider files on the drive marked Deleted as being free space, and it copy over them. If that happens then you are in big trouble. This rule also applies for partitions, since partition information just presents the operating system with a way of addressing the spa...

Most IT project evaluations are like the tail wagging the dog. They begin with IT strategy, rather than the goals of the business. In fact, IT strategy should be the third link in a chain that begins with business strategy, which in turn governs the product or service strategy, which then drives IT strategy. Lets understand this with a mid size CRM company Business strategy: Increase the customer base by 20 percent in the next year by providing increased functionality such as business operations analytics and executive dashboards. Product strategy: Develop an alliance with a business intelligence (BI) software company to add analytical capabilities to the CRM software. IT strategy: Create a new software platform that allows for easy integration with the BI software company and others. IT projects: Develop a Web services–based platform that offers universal data exchange and messaging between the CRM software and the BI software.   While this hierarchy reveals whether IT projects...

Saying no is perhaps the most important productivity tool that exists. Saying no is an art. It is also perhaps the most difficult thing to do for most people. I used to dread the occasions where I knew I will have to say no and I used to prepare for such situations for days. Now, I almost look forward to saying no to people and I actually enjoy the process! Find out how the change happened. 1. You are doing everyone a favour by saying no. Whenever you are saying NO to someone, remember that it is for their benefit! By saying no, you are • Giving the person an opportunity to look for someone who can do the job better. • Avoiding negative feelings about the person. 2. Visualize the alternative (to saying no) in vivid detail. • You will feel bad and will curse yourself for accepting the task. • You will do a bad job. • You will hate the person for putting this on to you. • The person will hate you for doing a bad job. • You should not have said yes, if you were not going to do a good...

Nicholas Carr's article "IT Doesn't Matter" (Harvard Business Review, May 2003) challenges the value proposition for IT. He argues that as companies become more dependent on IT for their day-to-day operations, so the emphasis switches to managing availability, reliability and security. As such, businesses should manage IT as a commodity. Do you subscribe to the Carr view? Do you align IT with the business in a purely supportive role? But innovations within IT continue to create possibilities and options for businesses that did not exist before. But where IT engages the business, pro actively and as an equal, companies will be able to continue to deliver strategic advantage through IT. The following will be useful in assessing the level of business engagement: - to whom does the IT function report in your business? For example, the Board (where the CIO/IT director is a Board member), the CEO (who has a business development focus), the COO (who has a business operations focus) or the...
