Cant help with that. However, I have been caught up in Y2K testing for
several really large corporates (nameless to protect the guilty) and generally
the Y2K testing has been more massively disruptive and costly then any
Y2K problem uncovered could have ever been. The no. 1 experience I would
take from this is: Take complete backup of disks before starting tests. Do
*complete* restore from backup when finished. Test the backup set before
starting the tests. The hours and money this obvious step would have saved
is amazing.
