Well hello all you beautiful blogging bunnies, how the devil are ya? I'm just fine and dandy thanks, but heh, let's cut the crap and get down to business dudes.
This week was once again focused mainly on revision of the server 2003 installation with all the usual bits and bobs as well as configuring FTP and installing an FTP client on the client machine then testing the connectivity with FTP client.
The process went something like this.

3 Create a user account
4. Set up client server network
5. Configure IIS
6. Test web server via client machine
7. Configure FTP
8. Install FTP client on client machine
9. Test FTP connection with FTP client
Revision questions.
1. What can be considered a disaster? Any unplanned interruption to normal business procedures that results from an interruption to the IT and network infrastructure that supports these business processes.
2. Why plan for disaster? You'd be a right dick-head if you didn't -it is to reduce the impact of a disaster and reduce the amount of time taken to recover from the disaster.
3. DRP stands for? Disaster recovery plan - A contingency plan covering how a business should recover from potential disasters disaster and continue functioning.
4. What are the two goals of a DRP? To prevent disruption from events that can be anticipated and to reduce the impact of disruptive events that cannot be avoided by documenting the steps to follow in the event of a disaster.
5. RAID stands for? Redundant arrays of independent disks
6. What are three techniques of RAID? Mirroring, parity and striping
7. Describe the five RAID levels?
Level 1 - data is striped across multiple drives.
Level 2 - data is mirrored across multiple disks.
Level 3 - Data is striped across three or more drives at a byte level with the parity information written to a dedicated parity disk.
Level 4 - Similar to raid 3, but the striping is implemented at a block level.
Level 5 - Data and parity is striped across three or more drives.
8. What is a UPS? Un-interruptible power supply
9. What is a cold site, a warm site and a hot site?
A cold site is the cheapest solution and provides only basic services. It has no IT equipment or infrastructure such as network cabling or office equipment and will need to be equipped before operations can resume.
A warm site is equipped with some or all of the equipment and services needed to begin operations. Before operations can be resumed computers and software will need to be installed and configured.
A hot site is a site that is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. These sites allow an organization to continue normal operations within a very short period of time.
Well dat'll be about de lot for 'dis week me little leprechauns, take it sleazy and don't do anything that I wouldn't........toodlepip for now.
