Liz,
Agreed.
About 12 or so years ago I was brought in to fix a really bad mess.
The CDS's were being shared between systems and absolutely integrity
product was in place (nor were the HSM parms set up correctly. What a
mess!
AUDITS were set up and ran continuously for weeks on end. Actually I
broke the audit jobs up but the the elapsed time for all the jobs
lasted 20-22 hours a day. I never saw so many errors in my life. IBM
just shook their head and kept saying we were lucky all the CDS's
wasn't totally corrupt.

Brian,
Running HSM audits on a regualar basis IS a good idea. We were
burned a
few years ago (thankfully not on a Production plex) and since then
have
instituted a policy of 'no backup, no migrate' so that there is
always a
second copy of the data somewhere for recovery. As well, we run
audits on
a daily basis - we use the FastAudit product from Mainstar as the
native
audit just runs too long.
