The key to successful disaster recovery for<strong>CA</strong> <strong>Enterprise</strong> <strong>Log</strong> <strong>Manager</strong> is in keeping regular backups.You need to make backups of the following information:■■■<strong>CA</strong> <strong>Enterprise</strong> <strong>Log</strong> <strong>Manager</strong> application instance on the management server/opt/<strong>CA</strong>/<strong>Log</strong><strong>Manager</strong>/data folder on each <strong>CA</strong> <strong>Enterprise</strong> <strong>Log</strong> <strong>Manager</strong> serverCertificate files in the /opt/<strong>CA</strong>/SharedComponents/iTechnology folder oneach <strong>CA</strong> <strong>Enterprise</strong> <strong>Log</strong> <strong>Manager</strong> serverIf maintaining high-throughput levels is critical to your implementation, you maychoose to maintain a reserve server that has the same hardware characteristicsas the one on which you install your other <strong>CA</strong> <strong>Enterprise</strong> <strong>Log</strong> <strong>Manager</strong> servers. Ifone <strong>CA</strong> <strong>Enterprise</strong> <strong>Log</strong> <strong>Manager</strong> server is disabled, you can install another oneusing the exact same name. When the new server starts, it receives thenecessary configuration files from the management server. If this level ofperformance is not crucial to your implementation, you can install a <strong>CA</strong><strong>Enterprise</strong> <strong>Log</strong> <strong>Manager</strong> server on any blank server that is capable of hosting thebase operating system and meets the minimum memory and hard diskrequirements.More information about hardware and software requirements is available in the<strong>CA</strong> <strong>Enterprise</strong> <strong>Log</strong> <strong>Manager</strong> Release Notes.The internal <strong>CA</strong> EEM server, installed on the management server, also has itsown failover configuration processes for ensuring continuity of operations,covered in detail in the <strong>CA</strong> EEM Getting Started Guide.Appendix D: Disaster Recovery 229
