We have to create a plan which is how to recover from disaster if .Net server suddenly goes down OR everything got corrupted. Can someone provide some input how to start on that?


Other inforation:-

that server is web services host and all the sites are running from that.
So we need to install
IIS,ASP,.Net Framework

Without being facetious, google for disaster recovery plan! Disaster Recovery is very company specific (unless you are under a regulatory body, such as banks are in the UK). There nearly always a balance of risk against cost. I skimmed this and it looked a likely place to start:

Personally, it sounds like the most basic thing you need are at least two load balanced servers, so if one goes down you can take it away and repair/replace, leaving the first server to continue. But that isn't really disaster recovery, more fail-safing. The other thing is that you might find the application you have is unsuitable (server-based session don't work on most load-balanced environments for example).

If you are interested in more robust disaster recovery the you then have to consider whether an off-site mirror of your site is appropiate. You might find companies where you are that host this for you.
