ADMINISTRATOR SECTION CHAPTER 2: CONFIGURING THE ER SERVER

Although automatic backups to a local ER hard drive are scheduled nightly by default, it is important that the ER administrator implements a backup policy to ensure data integrity and continuity in the event of any possible failure scenario. This policy should include frequent, remote backups, such that raw logs and ER database files are avail- able for restoration without relying on the ER’s hard drives.

In general, recovery plans involve (i) restoring the most recent backup of the database, and (ii) restoring raw logs to fill in the gap between the most recent backup of the data- base, and the current date and time.

Some scenarios and action plans to consider include the following:

•The ER database becomes corrupted - Correct the root problem. Restore the database from the most recent ER backup, and reprocess raw logs up to the current date and time.

•The data drive fails - Replace the data drive. Restore the database from the ER backup drive, and reprocess raw logs up to the current date and time.

•The backup drive fails - Replace the backup drive, and perform a manual backup.

•Both data and backup drives are damaged - Restore the database from the most recent remote backup, and reprocess raw logs up to the current date and time.

As you can see, it is critical that raw logs are available to bridge the gap between the last database backup and the present time, and more frequent backups (local and remote) result in less “catch-up” time required for reprocessing raw logs.
