Where I am working at the moment part of their DR strategy consists of breaking a mirrored pair and keeping it in a fire safe in the event of server failures, I have managed to get them to drop this idea for DC's but they still insist on doing it for other servers. Application servers I don't care about but I do care about the Exchange server , they are only pulling the mirror on the OS and the Application and not on logfiles etc, as these are on raid 5. What would the impact be on AD if they plugged the OS and Application disks back in after 3 months or after AD tomestoning? What is the impact on the other files on the other disks. The org is E2K3 and W2K3 too. It smells of deep deep sh.... to me but, I want quantification.
