Disaster recovery planning
Disaster Recovery Planning (DRP) reduces the business
impact of a disaster. DRP ensures that the business supported
by the data center remains viable. In the event of a disaster at the
primary data center, full operations and production work would move
to a secondary data center. By using IBM® Z Workload Scheduler to
direct the recovery effort, you can ensure that the required recoveries
are run in sequence, with minimal delays, and that every error
is detected and reported. This chapter describes:
- Designing your IBM® Z Workload Scheduler DRP.
- Implementing your IBM® Z Workload Scheduler DRP.
Before you plan for the recovery of data, have a good
understanding of the comprehensive built-in recovery actions provided
by IBM® Z Workload Scheduler.
This reading is recommended:
- The Planning and Installation chapter on IBM® Z Workload Scheduler configurations
- Current® plan reference information in the chapter about producing the current plan, which is described in Managing the Workload
- Backup and recovery of data sets.
