You'd be surprised how many times a backup system seems to work but fails when its really needed because nobody tested that restore worked too. BTW, for a real test you should restore onto a different server. (Be paranoid, assume your physical machine gets wrecked and you have to restore onto a virgin system.) I'll shut up now... last time I wrote a paper on disaster recovery I scared the crap out of the managers with all the scenarios I came up with they didn't dare show it to the clients (e.g. they forgot that when your data lines get severed - not uncommon when the builders are digging up the road outside your office - that having a separate lines coming in over a different physical route suddenly doesn't sound so stupid. Funnily enough when I did networking at IBM that was a standard thing to suggest to the clients). > > <You have a PHB > > > What is a PHB? Good grief, I though everybody knew that one. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pointy_Haired_Boss -- David Somers typographer/programmer/whatever
