Datacenter disasters
A bit off-topic but I'm currently reading Jason Buffington’s book Data Protection for Virtual Data Centers. One of the paragraph’s in the second chapter status What Could possibly go wrong? This section encourage you to think about what could possible go wrong in your environment.
This made me curious on stories available on the internet (which I like to share)
- Top 8 datacenter disasters in 2007
- Top 10 Data Center Disasters that could ruin your business
- Datacenter Horror stories
- How the Seattle data center fire caught companies unprepared
For fun

Good datacenter disaster stories are actually hard to find. If you find one please add it the link to the comments

Is your VMware snapshot application consistent ??
When using Hyper-V (R2) as your virtualization solution it is likely that you will use DPM 2010 as your backup solution. When using DPM 2010 to protect the Hyper-V parent\host it is able to create consistent backups of application\database which are running inside the child machines. I will explain how this works in one of my next posts.
But which solution should you use for Vmware image backups and what are the pitfalls.
My colleague Marcel van den Berg (UP2V ) writes about it on his blog post: Is your VMware snapshot application consistent ??
Maybe a bit off-topic here. But it never hurts to broaden your horizon
Also from his hand: Overview of image level backup solutions for VMware vSphere
