What kind of pills you looking for Guido? Little Ectasy or some Oxycontin?
You don't want those, they severely impact your ability to think and to
realize that impact. I am sure they are readily available in Vegas though.

I'm not so hot on wheat beer - how about a nice pils :-)

well, I'd say AD won't have too much of an issue with it at all - however,
they'd have to reset the Exchange Server's machine-pwd or rejoin it to the
domain since it will likely not be able to create a secure channel.

Not sure how the Exchange server itself will react to this time-warp (it
would likely cough up a bit)... but it doesn't sound like a scenario that
would hurt your AD.

Certainly important not to use this approach (using a mirror-disk) for AD DC
themselves (could be a potential solution if you could really guarantee that
you'd pull the disks from all DCs in the forest at the same time - highly
unlikely and certainly not recommended). But I'd certainly also question
this approach from a long-term cost-perspective...

Subject: [ActiveDir] OT: DR strategy question

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.
