Hi Gavin,
        Sorry for the delay in responding, I had a few days down time.
The mirror-mode configuration was selected as data consistency, reducing chance 
of conflicts and high availability are all characteristics that we wish to have 
in the platform. It may be that I have selected the wrong topology, but reading 
the manual the Mirror-mode topology appeared to hit all the right points.

I wanted to reduce the chances of having to deal with write conflicts due to 
multiple writes been sent multiple providers at a time.

Hope this explains the rational.

Cheers

Wayne

Hi Wayne,

Ah, OK. What's your concern with just running with N-Way?

Thanks.
