G'Day people,<br>
If you consider that an information system comprises more than just
the data. then problems with any part of the system should probably
form part of the disaster recovery plan (hereafter referred to as
DRP). Whilst students might not be expected to discuss at great
length what to do if the network manager has a heart attack and
drops dead, the DRP should consider alternative premises as well as
computer replacement and restoring data backups in case of total
loss due to fire etc.<br>

<blockquote type="cite">Hi all. Having seen a couple of (what I consider)
dodgy questions about data disaster recovery plans, I am a little
concerned about key knowledge dotpoint 9 of U4O2 next year:
"disaster recovery strategies and the testing of these
strategies". It's not significantly improved from the existing
U4O2 KK05 which also refers to 'disaster recovery strategies'.<br>
<br>
The dodgy questions were discussing things like rebuilding after
fires, sweeping up the mess etc. In other words, disasters rather
than <b>data </b>disasters, which is our territory.<br>
<br>
I hope VCAA examiners and SAC writers read the dotpoint as "<b>data</b>
disaster recovery strategies and the testing of these strategies"
to avoid irrelevant non-ICT questions and student responses.<br>
