A fire safe that really is fire-proof? -----Original Message----- From: Hutchinson, Alan [mailto:Alan.Hutchinson@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: 19 November 2002 17:16 To: 'thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx' Subject: [THIN] Re: OT: Disater Recovery-Licensing Off site fire safe? -----Original Message----- From: Evan Mann [mailto:emann@xxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: 19 November 2002 16:35 To: 'thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx' Subject: [THIN] OT: Disater Recovery-Licensing What happens if your building burns down and your fire safe melts down to, and inside of it is all your licensing paperwork. Many licenses can be accounted for elsewhere by my figures (and guesses) such as: Citrix Licensing - All done online Microsoft Open Licenses - MS keeps their own records online Windows/Office licenses purchased with new PCs - Ex: Buy a new Dell with Win2K/Office 2K, Dell has records But what other products where you did not buy directly from the manuf. and no online record of licensing exists. For ex: Exchange licenses/CALs Windows CALs SQL Server licenses Photocopies are no good, and manuf.'s aren't just going to believe you really had the licensing. So what happens in the event of catasrophy and all paperwork is lost? *********************************************** This Weeks Sponsor: Wyse Technologies Get a free whitepaper on how to secure your corporate data from Wyse.
