Disaster Recovery
Disaster recovery is a very complex process that involves products from
several vendors. As such, successful disaster recovery depends on all the
vendors involved. The information provided here is intended to be used
as a guideline.
Check the instructions from the database/application vendor on how to
prepare for a disaster recovery. Also refer to the HP OpenView Storage
Data Protector Disaster Recovery Guide for instructions on how to
approach system disaster recovery using Data Protector.
This is a general procedure for recovering an application:
1. Complete the recovery of the operating system.
2. Install, configure, and initialize the database/application so that data
on the Data Protector media can be loaded back to the system.
Consult the documentation from the database/application vendor for
a detailed procedure and the steps needed to prepare the database.
3. Ensure that the database/application server has the required Data
Protector client software installed and is configured for the
database/application. Follow the procedures in this chapter and in the
troubleshooting section.
4. Start the restore. When the restore is complete, follow the
instructions from the database/application vendor for any additional
steps required to bring the database back online.
