Protection of Valuable Records
Safeguards should be taken to protect business records and any other information that is either very
expensive or impossible to duplicate. Duplicate or master records should be maintained so that vital
information can be retrieved quickly in case of an accident. Copies of vital data should be stored well
away from the computer area; normally in some type of fireproof storage device.
A regular updating process should be put into place to ensure that the value of the stored information is
maintained. Electronic data processing insurance is also available to cover both hardware and
software. Contact your local Hewlett-Packard Sales and Service office for details.
Telephone
You should plan to install a telephone with a long cord near your computer system to expedite
consultations with Hewlett-Packard Sales Representatives, CEs, AEs, and Response Center personnel.
Additional phone lines, appropriately placed, should be planned if a remote support modem is to be
installed with your computer system. Remote support allows system problems to be diagnosed from a
remote location via the telephone lines.
NOTE
Check with your local telephone company to be sure the telephone
service at the site can accommodate modem/data quality
transmission.
