Perform
regular
testing of the recovery plan for your
Unwired Platform
infrastructure
in
a lab environment that mimics your production
environment.
These tests allow you to discover the length of time needed to recover your system and any
potential issues with the process or strategy you have created.
Disaster recovery tests may be required to comply with corporate business continuity
policies. Sybase does not require testing as part of runtime maintenance, but recommends it
as part of a larger continuity process.
Test the
recovery process either by:- Validating that the backup and recovery process are working as expected, and
that the documentation describing the process is valid and readily available in
case of a disaster.
- (Recommended) In a testing environment, perform an actual failover to the
backup database, then failback to the primary database after the test is
completed. Do not perform this test in a production environment.
