Disaster recovery plans had little guidance about transferring backup data from off-site storage to alternate processing sites.
The main lessons from the Mercantile Credit fire with respect to disaster recovery plans was that they should be modular, kept up-to-date and be accessible to those needing them in a disaster.
Organization A was a large company with many production sites organized in regions. All production sites and regional offices were attached to the star and cluster network emanating from the computer centre based at head office. In addition to the midrange computers, each production site was controlled, to a greater or lesser extent, by process computers. The approach taken here took in a much wider view--a whole business resumption plan to cover the business computers, the process computers and the loss of the head office accommodation and facilities. The disaster recovery plan detailed, by application, the action to be taken at each of seven levels of disaster.
