Q: Backup and recovery in major corporations?

Hey guys, I hope this is the right place to post. As i'm not too sure where this question would go.
The question is: How is backup and recovery carried out in major corporations. Even if you are not in a major corporation an answer would be great.

I'm doing some research as to how it's carried out by different businesses and such. Large scale.. small scale.. etc. (Linux-based, and windows-based systems, any specific hardware)

I'd appreciate any help and I will also be looking under the CIO website.

thanks!!

ovdb_recover

ovdb_recover(8) 					    InterNetNews Documentation						   ovdb_recover(8)

NAME

       ovdb_recover - Perform recovery on the ovdb database, if needed

SYNOPSYS

       ovdb_recover [-f]

DESCRIPTION

       Attempts to open the ovdb database, and if the database needs recovery, it attempts to perform the recovery.  Similar in function to the
       BerkeleyDB db_recover command.

       Specify the `-f' option to force a recovery, even if the database appears to not need it.  It is not an error to perform a recovery opera-
       tion on a clean database.  However, do not run `ovdb_recover -f' while the database is in use by any other processes.

       Returns exit status of 0 if the database did not need recovery or if recovery succeeded, and returns exit status 1 if recovery failed.  In
       the latter case, the database may be damaged beyond repair, requiring a rebuild with makehistory(8).

       This command is normally called automatically by rc.news(8).
