Ah the old if I work at it long enough I will get the results needed. I hate that, then you wake up the next day and the light bulb goes off. I have an unwritten rule that after 6-8 hours working at a problem and your running around in circles go home and get a good rest and 9 times out of 10 the answers comes much more quickly. Everytime I am forced to stay at it all nite due to a serious outage the next day I always say man why didn't I think of that last nite. I think coffee dulls the brain after 14 hours. Good luck with your backup maintenance issues.
