Backup disaster recovery

Term: Backup disaster recovery

Definition:
Backup disaster recovery is the process, policies and procedures related to preparing for recovery or continuation of technology infrastructure critical to an organization after a natural or human-induced disaster.

Disaster recovery planning is a subset of a larger process known as business continuity planning and should include planning for resumption of applications, data, hardware, communications (such as networking) and other IT infrastructure. A business continuity plan includes planning for non-IT related aspects such as key personnel, facilities, crisis communication and reputation protection, and should refer to the disaster recovery plan (DRP) for IT related infrastructure recovery/continuity.

Hi,

Please note Backup4all does not back up your system files. You should use it only for data files.

It would be helpful if you indicated how B4All supports (specifically) DR. I've been looking at Genie Bkup Mgr. I've tried using its DR facility to back up our main compueter on a 5-computer network, but it keeps (fatal) erroring off with no indication of the error, other than "fatal". It sounds like there are limitations to using USB devices, whether flash drives (like 16GB Kensington) or HDD (Iomega 250GB HDD). Is that true?
