Well, it depends on what they want to do and how seamless, seamless really is when pen meets checkbook. For 3k to 7k you might be able to look at something like DoubleTake (barely) and perhaps get a chance to test it on your free evenings and weekends. For a single server replication over a high speed LAN, it might be acceptable depending on how the requirements are defined.

I think they want to spend somewhere from $3k to $7K (Not sure, as they have not told me anything). I told them that for that price the best thing they could do is have another server and do a daily restore of the database on that box and if the main server dies put up the new one instead. What do you think? Any other ideas?

Don't believe such a high availability solution exists. Even overspeccing a single box to ensure it's fully redundant gets rather expensive on a per user basis for only 180 users. What are the actual requirements surrounding the solution and what budget has been proposed to implement it?

We want to be able to recover w/ out any user interaction (by that we mean it would be transparent to them and they don't want to be down for 4 to 6 hours). We have about 180 users. I know we can cluster them but they don't want to go that route because of the cost. Will software or hardware replication work and be transparent or are there any other technologies that you may be aware of? _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
