This section lists the high-level steps required to create a backup and recovery plan. A backup and recovery (often called disaster recovery) plan should include all data and information required to restore uPerform in the event of an unexpected failure. Administration of the system, backup schedules, and restoration procedures are important topics to discuss during the planning and implementation process. In addition to a backup and recovery plan, regularly scheduled server maintenance should be performed on the operating system and data storage application to ensure the latest security and service patches are applied.
