While we appeared to have a day and a half of no power the amazing men and women of the power company came through today. So the penguins made a mad dash back to get the nest back up and running. Amazing how all the simple things on a network have to be started in a specific order and typically not able to be done remotely. We learned several lessons from this. Next time don’t grab the server! When you are going to the place that has a fully replicated server for backup you don’t need 2 servers at the same location. the “loss” of a few hours of work isn’t worth it. now that everything is back up and running the normal daily backups will resume.
REMEMBER ALWAYS BACKUP YOUR DATA REGULARLY AND OFF SITE when possible.
