Links de Interes: Active Directory Disaster and Recovery
Hola,
En el presente post, les dejo links de interés para armado, preparación, prevención y ejecución de Disaster and Recovery. Tenemos que tener la idea en claro, que nuestra infraestructura de Active Directory es el Core y permite el funcionamiento de muchas otras plataformas, que sea por autenticación, resolución de nombre, delegaciones, etc toman los recursos de nuestro dominio y para brindar un correcto servicio, tenemos que tener un plan estructurado y detallado de recovery ante fallas que se nos puedan presentar, desde un simple objeto borrado, pasando por OUs con muchos objetos, Domain Controllers, Dominios, Políticas de Dominio y hasta un desastre de magnitudes importantes que hasta pueda afectar nuestro Forest Completo.
Este tema es muy extenso de tratar y lamentablemente en muy pocos lugares le dan la importancia que realmente necesita, nos acordamos de tener un plan de recovery cuando tal vez es demasiado tarde..., pero es importante tener documentado y sobre un ambiente hacer pruebas, como para llegado el caso aplicar algo en nuestro ambiente productivo, sepamos los pasos a seguir y no se pierda tiempo con ejecuciones y "pruebas" sin sentido, demorando el tiempo de resolución del problema.
A continuación, les dejo una lista de varios links de interés, el cual les será de utilidad para armar la documentación de Disaster and Recovery de su empresa, sobre el ambiente de laboratorio para hacer estas pruebas, pueden armarlo sobre infraestructura virtual, es recomendable generar una estructura paralela de iguales características que producción, tanto en cantidad de objetos como en cantidad de equipos, ya que les servirá para destinar tiempos de resolución, pero tal vez si tienen una empresa con una estructura de Active Directory grande, no pueden duplicar todo igual, con lo que armando su laboratorio "a escala", ya les sirve para sobre cada tipo de desastres, estimar tiempos de resolución.-
Ahora si, les dejo los links, son en verdad muchos, pero pueden ir tomando los que les sea de utilidad ya que varios son de conocimiento general con lo que no necesitaran tomar información del mismo, pero de seguro, algunos se les pase y puedan tenerlo desde el siguiente detalle:
