Effective DPP Management

The last element - and possibly the most important - is proper management of your DPP strategy. A person or group of people should be charged with constantly supervising your practice's disaster preparation efforts. Someone should install and maintain hardware protection devices, make sure all departments have a plan if the server goes down temporarily, and make sure that backups are made and rotated off-site regularly. Also, it is a good idea to document your Disaster Preparation plan for reference purposes.

Backup Exec plays a major role in your DPP by offering an easy, reliable way of backing up and restoring your files.

It is beyond the scope of this chapter to describe what precautionary measures to take in order to make restoration as straightforward as possible in the event of a disaster.

Please contact your Account Manager who can direct you to the recommended engineering solutions.
