our disaster recovery plan was "mercurial is a distributed source control system so everything's fine" up until recently

BiohazrD posted:our dr plan is basically "if the data center goes away it's the nuclear holocaust so who cares" that's what i used to tell them! nobody liked that tho. we've since opened a second data center on the other side of the country where backups and, sometimes, cold standby servers / VMs are stored. but waaaaay more importantly, it's also not at all my loving problem anymore.

My real DR plan involves a few servers backed up to AWS and then laughing because if we need them we've fallen into a sinkhole and cease to exist anyway

they were utterly perplexed, absolutely loving baffled, that moving just the domain controllers and basic auth stuff to AWS would cost around six figures a year

we have veeam copy our nightly backups over to a 2 disk NAS sitting on a shelf (10gb fiber link between dc and office) of course since we are literally on the river any kind of disaster will result in the office flooding well before the DC we also have a failover vpn concentrator and SBC/voip system here in the office, for some as yet unimagined scenario where the datacenter is offline but the catastrophe that caused it didnt effect us 4 miles away
