Another DR test in Philly has come an end. This one was rather interesting for a number of reasons. First off we had never performed a DR for this particular TSM environment, so we had no documentation on how the environment should be recovered. Chuck and I pretty much had to modify some existing documents we had for our ADV environment on the fly. Things went much better than we anticipated, and even though we only had two hours to rebuild the environment, which we figured was about four hours to little, we still managed to make it pretty far into the recovery and learned a lot. Secondly, we only had two hours because we had some issues with the AIX MKSYSB tape not arriving from Ireland until Tuesday the 7th, when we needed it Monday the 6th. Due to this we actually got to take two hours on Tuesday and tour The Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons of Pennsylvania. It is currently undergoing restoration of the outside, but the inside was amazing. I took a lot of photos with my camera phone, and will get them up as soon as I can. I really would like to go back and do thhis tour again with my good camera and retake some pictures for a couple of reasons. One, they would be much better quality, and two I would actually be able to take more because it would focus and snap faster. I wish I had the time, connections, and opportunity to pursue joining the Masons as it is something I have thought about off and on for a long time now. Maybe sometime in the future.
