System Backup

  1. My Classmates and I have put a lot of effort into our site. Is it backed up anywhere?

    Answer: Yes. We have three separate backups. One backup runs in real time on a duplicate hard drive called a Mirrored RAID Array. In the event of hard drive failure we have an immediate, full backup of the entire Class Creator system. A second, complete backup of the system is done nightly. A third off-site backup runs every two hours saving all data to a remote location. In the unlikely event a total disaster (such as a fire in our building) should wipe out our main systems and mirrored backups simultaneously, we would be able to quickly restore the Class Creator system from our off-site backup.
