A company's disaster recovery team meets in a conference room to walk through the procedures of a disaster recovery plan after a simulated server failure. The team discusses their roles and the expected sequence of events without using any actual equipment or relocating to a backup site. Which of the following DR concepts does this scenario describe?
This scenario describes a tabletop exercise, which is a discussion-based session where team members meet to discuss their roles and walk through the steps of a disaster recovery plan in response to a simulated event. It does not involve physical relocation or actual system recovery. A full-scale exercise would involve a hands-on, physical run-through. A hot site cutover is the actual process of switching to a live backup site. RPO (Recovery Point Objective) is a metric that defines the acceptable amount of data loss, not a type of exercise.
