After 1 hour of trouble shooting and working with the vendor’s help desk, the IT team attempts a system reboot, which is unsuccessful. The vendor is in a different time zone, so specialists have to be called in from home to respond to this incident. The initial assessment is that the downtime is due to database corruption and the system will have to be recovered from backup systems. Unfortunately, the system is not configured with high availability techniques, nor is it redundant. The IT department estimates that it will take 8 hours to recover the system, for a total down-time of 10 hours.Discussion Questions1.Plot each component on the Downtime Determinator for both part 1 and part 2 of the scenario as it unfolded, and document your IT response, end user response, and communication plans.2.
