We have 8 remote locations (WAN) that all rely on us to be able to do anything. All of our resources are here, and the remote sites run all apps over Citrix, and all phones are run VoIP from here. So if we go down... Everyone goes down.

Of course, if we loose premises electrical we pretty much have to shut down manufacturing operations anyway, so it's usually not a concern. We did have one time it didn't work out well. The 200 amp breaker feeding the main offices from the main distribution panel died abruptly. So the server and comm rooms didn't have power but almost everything else did. Took a few hours to get it fixed. Factory ran on pencil and paper for a bit. Management decided (and I agreed) that it wasn't worth the cost to buy counter-measures against such a scenario. -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ . ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
