		<description><![CDATA[If you need some help or wish to expand your knowledge of Disaster Recovery, there are some great books that can help you do this.

However, if you do a search on Amazon.com for books with a keyword of "disaster recovery" you'll get 370 results! Some of those are books on disaster recovery, but there are of course a lot of other books in the list that are not focussed on DR. There are also a bunch of articles you can purchase.

To make your life easier [and in the hope of contributing to my own book fund!] I've worked through a large part of the list and identified 9 books that I believe may be most relevant. There are some that would be ideal for system administrators looking for help with Disaster Recovery, and others to help DR planners and managers in developing their DR strategy and plan. Browse my featured selection at my Amazon store by going to http://astore.amazon.com/itdisasterrec-20<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=itdr.wordpress.com&amp;blog=294039&amp;post=14&amp;subd=itdr&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When preparing your IT systems for disaster recovery, your backups are obviously a critical component. This article guides you through reviewing the following questions for your own IT environment.

- What is being backed up? 
- Are you backing up the backup software catalogs/database?
- Are you using an open-file plugin and other necessary plugsins?
- Who is checking the backup logs?
- Are you backing up the install CD's?
- What is the best backup software?
