Unit 10
Backup Plan:
A plan to acquire hardware.
A communication plan.
A list of people to be contacted in the event of a disaster.
Information on the ownership of the administration of the plan.
A checklist of required tasks for each recovery scenario. To help you review how disaster recovery progressed, initial each task as it is completed, and indicate the time of completion on the checklist.
Test your backup and recovery procedures thoroughly before a real failure occurs. Testing helps to ensure that you have the required backups to recover from various failures, that your procedures are clearly defined and documented, and that they can be executed smoothly and quickly by any qualified operator.
Perform regular database, transaction log, and file system backups to minimize the amount of lost data. Microsoft recommends that you back up both system and user databases.
Maintain system logs in a secure fashion. Keep records of all service packs installed on Microsoft Windows, your database, and Microsoft Dynamics AX.
On another server or set of servers, assess the steps you need to take to recover from a disaster. If necessary, amend the steps as necessary to suit the local server environment, and then test the amended steps.
Make sure that you understand and document the database and file access rights required to recover the database and application folder and get it to a working production state.
Plan for the loss of each Microsoft Dynamics AX server role, including the AOS, database server, application file server, and Enterprise Portal server. You should also understand the implications of the loss of the Domain Controller to the implementation.
Review related documentation, such as the Windows SharePoint Services Administration Guide, so that you are able to recover the other databases used with Microsoft Dynamics AX
