Contracts should always be part of each DR review because a courtesy can be revoked at any time without warning. It should clearly describe DR testing and actual DR.

You have enough on your plate without adding licenses to the mess. >Our DR/backup process is that we have a second site that we are >doing full disk replication of our DS8K (async) to our second datacenter. As an FYI, disk replication doesn't take into account logical units of work (e.g. database transactions and VSAM). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
