- A 3rd party supplier at another site with a blank machine that you overwrite when you need it
That leads on to two questions:-
- If it's an overwrite, what tool do you use to get the first boot of your recovered OS.
- If it's always running & replicating, how do you protect yourself from a catastrophic error being replicated, rather than just hardware failure?

Nope. I have one server which my firm gave me for playing, I'm student intern and I love to destroy and fix stuff
