Backup Procedures Goal of backup Procedures: § No service interruption in case of outage of single NC / DCPC / GISC § 6. 2. 3 Each GISC should maintain business continuity plans and handover arrangements to ensure continued service to the NCs and DCPCs in its area of responsibility, especially for the collection and distribution of data and products. § 6. 3. 2 Data collection and distribution must continue without interruption to and from centres in the GISC area being backed up. Where a centre's routine receipt of data is through subscription (e. g. GTS push), the backup GISC must have a current list of data to be sent to each centre or provide a place for the centres to come and get the data (e. g. GISC Cache). Page: 11
