Disaster Planning and Recovery
Disaster types
-  Acts of god (e.g. earthquake, fire, flood) 
 
-  Human (e.g. power loss, terrorist act, bulldozer) 
 
budget = disaster cost * disaster probability
Actions:
-  Minimize possibility of damage (e.g. using rack-mounted components makes
servers less susceptible to earthquake damage,
an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) will guard against power fluctuations)
