Hurricane Katrina:Our Story
• Our Emergency Plans Assumed One of the
“Normal” Means of Communication Would
Always Be Available
– How will you “reconnect” when nothing
works?
– Revised basic plan now posted at
http://www.loyno.edu/emergency/
![Page 15: Session 1](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081513/56813cca550346895da67356/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
15
The Road to Recovery
• Loyola’s IT Department had a comprehensive
disaster recovery plan in place
– Data routinely sent to Chicago
– Mainframe operations restored within two
weeks of the storm
– Operations transferred to Houston then back to
New Orleans
![Page 16: Session 1](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081513/56813cca550346895da67356/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
16
Resuming Operations
• Minimal staff pulled to the University of Houston
(Academic Affairs) and Alexandria LA (Business
Office, Student Affairs, Advancement)
– Shortage of office space “post Katrina”
• NEW PLAN: if this happens again, we are all off
to Houston
![Page 17: Session 1](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081513/56813cca550346895da67356/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
17
The Internet Let Us Function
• Web-based Policy and Procedures Manual gave
everyone access to operational info needed
– Need to add technical processes
• Do Need to Be Sure to Have Some Security
Measures to Protect Sensitive Info in the Manual
![Page 18: Session 1](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081513/56813cca550346895da67356/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

Critical Issue

A Brief History of DR at Penn State
• The 1980s – computing isolation
• The 1990s – distributed computing
• Post 2000 – DR Initiatives
– Change in leadership (admin computing)
– September 14, 2001 meeting
– 2003 audit cited building proximity
– DR Planning Committee
![Page 32: Session 1](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081513/56813cca550346895da67356/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
32
Some Definitions
• Disaster Recovery (DR) – Recovery from
unplanned interruptions of normal business
processes beyond the immediate ability of the
organization’s staff and normal management
structure to control. Strongly related to the
recovery of the IT infrastructure
![Page 33: Session 1](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081513/56813cca550346895da67356/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
33
Some Definitions
• Business Continuity Planning (BCP) – The
proactive processes and procedures an
organization puts into place to ensure that
essential functions can continue during and after a
disaster
• DR enables BCP
![Page 34: Session 1](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081513/56813cca550346895da67356/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
34
Some Definitions
• Incident – An event that leads to a short term business interruption or loss of data on a small scale i.e.. Water damage to an IT area
• Disaster – Loss of the primary IT area or the loss of the secondary mirrored IT computing facility, but not both facilities
• Catastrophe – Loss of the primary and secondary computing facilities
![Page 35: Session 1](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081513/56813cca550346895da67356/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
