Back in 2000 at a previous employer my then boss and I implemented our DR plan on UV9.something using a nightly rsync. It wasn't a hot DR site but that didn't matter and we were also able to shut down UV for the duration of the backup which was from the live disks to backup disks using the Solaris dump/restore and once complete we'd dump the backup file systems off to tape and then rsync it to DR. The backup scripts were mostly perl but the rsync was ksh scripts. Only took a few months to hack together. The disks themselves were all under Veritas VM control.

We are on UV 10.2.10 which does not support UV replication. We have no plans to upgrade at this time but need a backup for our Universe server. Our database is about 180GB.
