A disaster recovery team needs a solution that would best meet the following requirements:
- The server infrastructure has been pre-installed
- The fail-over location offers basic life support.
- The fail-over location provides basic network connectivity.
- Minimizing cost is preferred over quicker business recovery times
- The expected time for services to be fully operational is days.
Which of the following sites would meet the requirements?
Correct Answer: C
A warm site is a scaled-down version of a hot site. The recovery site is often only configured with power, phone, and network jacks. It may have computers and other resources, but they are not configured and ready to go.
- You bring the hardware, software, data
- A second site in the event of a disaster
- Doesn't mirror all live data
