Tags: technologist, disaster recovery, management
Overview Technologists often exhibit an unexpected response when asked by management to produce a disaster recovery plan for an automated system. They get genuinely ticked off. In the mind of a good technologist, this request is often interpreted as a signal that management does not trust them to recover in the event of a disaster. They look at the disaster recovery plan as some kind of a test to prove they know how to do their jobs!
Those responsible for technical systems in virtually any organization are capable of recovering from a disaster under virtually any type of circumstance. This may sound like a very surprising statement, especially coming from someone who writes disaster recovery plans for a living; it is however, quite true.
