In my present scenario (which I'm not necessarily trying to improve), I have a NetApp. Not a san. I like this discussion to be general anyway, because it helps me know how I can do better next time. (which is not to say what we have is bad - it's good - but I always want to make it better). I am aware of SnapMirror (or whatever they call it) which allows you to snapshot one netapp onto another netapp. But you have to buy another netapp machine plus the snapmirror license. _______________________________________________ Tech mailing list [email protected] http://lopsa.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tech This list provided by the League of Professional System Administrators http://lopsa.org/
