One of the qualities of any good leader is the ability to clearly see an opportunity where others do not and to seize it. When others doubt and flounder, great leaders persevere. This year’s list of Business in Calgary’s 2009 Leaders of Tomorrow may all have slightly different leadership styles, but they execute their objectives with integrity and act as role models to aspiring young entrepreneurs. They are not just bosses or managers or business owners, they are true leaders.

SQL Backups
Is YOUR financial and operations data getting backed up?
Occasionally the need arises to restore Great Plains/ Dynamics GP data. Recently, Callow & Associates has experienced a number of client situations where the data backup was not readily available, unfortunately resulting in lengthy downtime. In one example, the backups were not being monitored and had been failing for several weeks. In another situation, the tape backup system was overwriting older tapes on a weekly rotation. The data required for restoration was from two weeks prior and the tape had been overwritten.
The long arduous task of recreating data can be avoided if a good data backup process is in place.
The concept of backup can be a daunting one. Here are five questions to ask your IT support:
1. Where are the database backup files and shared Dynamics GP folders and are they included in the tape backup job?
2. What is our daily/weekly/monthly/yearly tape backup strategy?
3. Who is monitoring the database maintenance plans?
4. When was our last test restoration of data completed to ensure our backups are working?
5. Should we contact Callow & Associates to discuss our Great Plains/ Dynamics GP backup related questions?
Backing up your business data is like wearing your seat belt. You hope you will never be in a situation requiring the backup, but it is certainly appreciated when you need it.
If you have more questions than answers, please contact us to arrange a complete backup process review.
