Well, all our servers were fine as of the time our building was evacuated on
Tuesday but I got paged on Wednesday that our 100 Wall St. office had lost
power and was running on generator.  Fortunately the only machines I had
there were our standby server (so we're running without a standby at the
moment), our development server (I ftp'ed the last export file over to a NJ
server and will probably be importing the development schemas to our QA box
as an interim measure) and a clone of our production server that we were
using for upgrade testing.  Somehow I don't think our planned upgrade will
happen this weekend...

Some of my colleagues had production servers in NY and, with some minor
snafus, have brought up the standby servers in NJ and switched everyone
over.

I am having fond recollections of arguing about 3 years ago that we had to
have our standby server in a different datacenter than our production
server. When I first joined this group they were both in NY.

I'm curious. With all that's going on in New York, were any
Oracle databases lost? Has anyone had to activate a disaster
recovery plan and bring up their database at a new location?
If so, how did that go? It would be interesting, and
possibly instructive, to hear some real-life stories about
what went wrong, what went well, etc.

Best regards,
