Scheduled
We will be conducting our customary annual Disaster Recovery Test this year as well. ASPEX can use these tests to decide whether optimization is necessary in its infrastructure, in order to be able to continue to guarantee a stable work environment.
The Disaster Recovery Test simulates a disaster scenario in our primary data centre during which our secondary data centre will take over all functions.
As far as possible ASPEX will itself test all applications in our data centre. It is also possible for you to test your applications yourself if you so request. In that case be sure to contact the ASPEX helpdesk. They will show you the way.
This test will be run during the weekend of 22 - 24 November. We start with transfer of the environment on Friday evening On Saturday we spend the day working in the secondary data centre Saturday evening everything will be transferred back to the primary data centre
We expect the test to run smoothly, but end-users may experience some difficulties during transfer of the environment. Definite timings are not yet known. Once we have them we shall inform you accordingly.
