Planning for disaster recovery is a necessary part of every good network administration plan. CA Enterprise Log Manager disaster recovery planning is relatively simple and straightforward. The key to successful disaster recovery for CA Enterprise Log Manager is in keeping regular backups.
You need to make backups of the following information:
If maintaining high-throughput levels is critical to your implementation, you may choose to maintain a reserve server that has the same hardware characteristics as the one on which you install your other CA Enterprise Log Manager servers. If one CA Enterprise Log Manager server is disabled, you can install another one using the exact same name. When the new server starts, it receives the necessary configuration files from the management server. If this level of performance is not crucial to your implementation, you can install a CA Enterprise Log Manager server on any blank server that is capable of hosting the base operating system and meets the minimum memory and hard disk requirements.
More information about hardware and software requirements is available in the CA Enterprise Log Manager Release Notes.
The internal CA EEM server, installed on the management server, also has its own failover configuration processes for ensuring continuity of operations, covered in detail in the CA EEM Getting Started Guide.
