<snip> Is there anything else I should include? <snip> If your customer is using GDGs, they will need the crystal ball option. [However they must gen the current system with that feature, and it must be in use PRIOR to the D/R situation or test.] This is the only way you can get A.B.C(0) to correctly resolve at the D/R site with the current generation as of the time they want to restore (using incremental backup/restore). BTDT, and I had to walk all the analysts and managers through the problem before I got them to see the secondary disaster they were headed for. If you are NOT using GDGs, then this does not necessarily apply to you.
