LCH Ltd Members are invited to participate in the 2019 LCH disaster recovery test scheduled to take place on 29 June 2019.
This will be an opportunity for members to check connectivity between our systems and, where possible, access to our website and reporting systems during a simulated incident; further allowing members to become familiar with LCH’s disaster recovery processes.
All Ltd members are required to participate in LCH DR testing, as documented in the member rulebook. Members can choose between two options to complete testing requirements for 2019:
- Participation in the annual LCH disaster recovery test
Testing is scheduled to take place on Saturday 29 June 2019. During the test, members will be asked to check connectivity between our systems and, where possible, access to our website and reporting systems. Members, where possible should test their own disaster recovery procedures at the same time. Further details, including timings, will be provided to participants following registration.
- Data Centre Connectivity Testing - available 24/7
Members also have the option of completing basic connectivity testing to our back up data centre, which can be completed at any point in time. Details regarding this testing can be found on a secure site that has been set up specifically for members.
