Rich Mountain Community College • Classes at the Mena campus resumed at Rich Mountain Community
College April 20, 2009 – 11 days later. • 70% of classes could be held on campus. Rich Mountain is using two
separate locations for the other thirty percent of classes. • Chancellor Wayne Hatcher reported that the Arkansas Disaster
Insurance was providing excellent coverage with up to eighty percent or more coverage of expenses for damage.
• ADHE has requesting additional funds through the Federal Stimulus program.
• AATYC member colleges have helped the campus with its immediate classroom/computers needs and related staff support.
• The biggest concern at the present time is for the faculty/staff and students that suffered due to the tornado. Eight (8) faculty/staff members lost their homes and belongings. We are not sure of the total number of students that suffered a loss.
• Rich Mountain is committed to providing counseling to those faculty/staff and students in need.
• Rich Mountain has set-up a task force of four (4) to five (5) individuals to coordinate the efforts to collect furniture and other necessary supplies for those that lost everything in the storm.

Methods to initiate campus-wide emergency notification (%)
Need a continuity of operations plan
Step One: Policy
• Without policy, having technology in place is pointless
• What policies are needed?– Campus emergency response plan– Information Technology emergency response plan– Departmental emergency response plan
Campus Emergency Response Plan• Public document usually maintained by Campus
Police/Public Safety/Security department• Includes public versions of all departmental and
administration wide disaster recovery plans• Details the following, at a minimum:
– Definition of “major” and “minor” emergencies and “disaster”
– Roles of all of the major players– Emergency response command center– Who is authorized to respond to news media– How rebuilding after an emergency/disaster will be
handled– Training and rehearsal
• Reviewed annually
What is Data?• Paper records• Digital records• All that stuff you have in your head but never
put on paper• How is it stored?
– Filing cabinets, cardboard boxes, under the coffee cup
– CD/DVD– Hard drive– Network storage– “The Cloud”
Replication of data to an off-site location, which overcomes the need to restore the data (only the systems then need to be restored or synchronized). This generally makes use of storage area network (SAN) technology
Replication of data to an off-site location, which overcomes the need to restore the data (only the systems then need to be restored or synchronized). This generally makes use of network attached storage (NAS) or storage area network (SAN) technology
NAS vs. SAN• NAS = Network Attached Storage
– External hard drive connected to a network– Small hard drive array connected to a network– Accessed via a network drive icon on the computer– NOT an enterprise level solution
• SAN = Storage Area Network– Large storage array– Used by servers– Users don’t even know it’s there– Very expensive, massive storage capacity
Cloud StorageHigh availability systems which keep both the data and system replicated off-site, enabling continuous access to systems and data
Online backup systems are typically built around a client software program running a schedule, typically once a day, and usually at night. The program collects, compresses, encrypts, and transfers the data to the remote backup service provider's servers
