I encourage anyone who works in Ops or who has an interest in Operations-style IT to check out the following post by Interdictor. Interdictor (real name unknown to me) was an Ops guy who worked for Zipa Networks - he rode out Hurricane Katrina and its aftermath, working around the clock to keep the systems of his web hosting customers functioning.
Some parts are humorous - others are terrifying. In the week or so after the big K, the idea of keeping a data center secure and powered is a feat unto itself. I encourage anyone with similar concerns to look at this real-world case study and think seriously about what you would do.
