An SOR Viewer is the "source of truth" during a crisis. It removes the guesswork from disaster recovery. By visualizing the , it transforms a chaotic recovery process into a controlled, trackable workflow, ensuring that when the dashboard turns green, your business is truly back online.
: Displays the power loss (dB) against distance (km or miles).
| Issue | Likely Cause | Solution | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | | Shallow monitoring (checking power/network only). | Implement application-layer heartbeat checks. | | Dashboard is blank or "Unknown" | Loss of access to the backup repository or monitoring agents are down. | Ensure the SOR Viewer is hosted off-site or in a highly available zone. | | State toggles between Green/Red rapidly | "Flapping" network connection or unstable load balancer. | Configure dampening settings (require 3 successful checks before marking as Restored). |
Without an SOR Viewer, IT teams must manually check individual servers, databases, and applications to verify recovery. This is slow and prone to human error. An SOR Viewer automates this verification, providing a single pane of glass for the entire recovery process.
