[QUOTE="retiredone, post: 89343, member: 1576"] I observed a complete test several years ago. Yes. It worked. They tested end to end. Please be aware that they identified applications which were critical to the survival of the business. There are some applications (can't recall an example now) which would be nice to have, but are not included in the emergency restore. If we face a real emergency where the survival of the business is at stake, would we really care about TLAs (example only). They restored the system and ran billing and compared the results to the actual system to be sure it was ok. (again an example) There are tapes of data stored off site. There are personnel on calling lists assigned to go to the backup location on a moments notice. There are backups for these people for vacation coverage. Even back ups to back ups. The system was well thought out and tested. [/QUOTE]
