Classification: Confidential OSPF has nothing to do with GDPS per se.
A GDPS Hyperswap will bring up the secondary site images, exactly as they looked in the primary site. If a physical network is used, this represents a large amount of manual intervention (not what you want if a real event is in progress). This could be handled with duplicate physical connections in the primary and secondary sites. Myself (and Murphy) can guarantee that things will (eventually) get out of sync between the primary and secondary sites and the network will fail. OSPF will learn the new network connections dynamically without manual intervention. You pays you money and you takes your choice!
