Technology Plan - Backup Procedures & Disaster Recovery

Current Environment

The purpose of a data recovery plan is to be able to recover most data within a relatively short time frame. The loss may range from one file on an instructor’s home directory, to loss of the entire data center.

Tape backups are performed weekly, at night. People who need to recover lost data can contact the Chabot/Las Positas District Information Technology Department at 723-6966.

Future Plan

We need to develop a procedure/process for moving tapes to a remote location for storage in the event of a disaster. One possible site would be the District office in Pleasanton.
