Apparently you missed the part where I explicitly described not relying solely on any one entity. And only within the context of extending a generous 90 day window. (If two entities are Internet unreachable for 80+ days, your own recovery likely isn't possible. ;)) And only for those vendors that still insist on keys, something I don't think they should do in the first place. To my knowledge, IBM's core philosophy is that we cannot assume you will always be able to reach us in a disaster, or vice versa. Or even that you will have people able and willing to attempt to reach us. We might be like Mission Control in Houston while you're in space and the radio links are down. "Houston, what's the key to unlock the rocket thruster (or to keep the thruster thrusting)? Houston? Come in, Houston." No, that simply doesn't work. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Timothy Sipples IT Architect Executive, Industry Solutions, IBM z Systems, AP/GCG/MEA E-Mail: [email protected] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
