There is also another cost associated with downtime which is often
overlooked ... recovery cost. Recovery costs will depend on type of
failure, availability and competence of support, etc.
I've been in a few situations where recovery cost was greater than
several months of downtime cost. In that case, we chose to leave the
server down.
