I am pretty much a novice when it comes to the area of hot sites and disaster recovery. Our network is fairly simple with a an ISP providing a T1, a single router, single firewall and roughly 50 internally NAT’d hosts. How can I create a duplicate hot/cold site from such an environment and what would it entail? I hear all this talk of SANS and EMCs and have even looked into some Veritas solutions for failover.
My estimated downtime is approximately 1-2 days at most if anything should happen.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
