Hardware Today: Natural Disaster Survival Guide

Overview It is doubtful many of the vehicles in the record-breaking traffic streaming out of New Orleans and Houston were evacuating servers from disaster. Savvy enterprises had already transferred data to a remote Disaster Recovery (DR) site to avoid losing it in power outages or flooding from the storms. At the very least, these enterprises shipped backup data offsite. The not-so-smart, however, simply headed north, hoping Hurricanes Katrina and Rita would be gentle on the hardware they abandoned. Disaster Recovery plans are built to restore full functionality in relation to infrastructure, including facility and IT, at time of crisis. One of the big problems with DR planning is the unpredictability of Mother Nature.
