Server Data Recovery

Immediate Importance of Server Data Recovery

There are so many good reasons why your server is considered as the lifeblood of your home or business network. So, should it goes down and all your data are lost, it is only critical that it recovers and starts running again as quickly as possible. Not just that because you will also need to recover any jeopardized information the soonest time possible. Based on studies, it was revealed that about 30% of server owners lack the formal strategy on how to back up their critical files and information. Most of them seem to be contented in waiting until a problem arises, not implementing the needed solution and still refusing that disaster is already drawing near.

Data recovery becomes crucial once your server loses data as the result of the following possible reasons:

Issues with the Array Controller – Any problem with the array controller’s operation can cause the array drives; corruption, which can then lead to failure of the server.

Upgrades in Server Hardware – In case the new hardware has not been properly installed, this can lead to the corruption of files, or worse, even the firmware controlling the server itself might get corrupted. The same thing can happen when the storage array’s capacity has been expanded.

Numerous Abortive Drives on Storage Array – If one or several drives on your server’s storage array have failed for whatever reason, it will make the other drives more susceptible to problems, and this can then ultimately lead to failure of the whole server.

Error File Deleted by Antivirus Program – Up to date and top quality antivirus software is of utmost importance when it comes to the protection of the system and your server. However, there might be instances when this antivirus software might spot an important file as malicious, deletion, truncating or overwriting the error file.

Software Upgrades – From time to time, software upgrade induces some issues in case the brand new software is not compatible with your current system software. Vital system files might end up corrupted by conflicting or competing software.
