Thanks, Yes, I am aware to the data integrity and data in MF buffer.
That is why I think about queries only. And ability to run massive ( with the tool of PC!!! ) programs in PC for statistic with a great response time. For statistic maybe the users accept the small chance of data integrity problem. Also maybe some installation can use my mirrors feature to run the programs on suspended mirror for statistic. Do not forget that you can suspend MFNetDisk mirror without stopping the activities of the real 3390.
