Thank U, Ron, Jon and Chris for your discussion so far The guys from Veritas also introduced to us the Replica Solution. But we have a dark fibre (2GBit) between our Datacenters and SAN is available in both places. So isn't it better to build a mirror with the Veritas Volume Manager. Of Course their told us about some Problems that might occour, that are ony solved in the new Veritas Cluster Server 4.1 Has anyone used or using a streched Veritas Cluster ? What are recommendations ? Seems to me that Replica Solution is best when you doesn't have a fast connection between the two Data Centers, isn't it?

SAN replication has come so far (not to mention the snapping, rollback abilities, Specific application snapping etc.) that it is almost a shame NOT to replicate data.

Mallesons Stephen Jaques www.mallesons.com Confidential communication thats exactly what we do cluster in primary, cluster in DR, replicated = data John (san administrator hat on!) -----Original Message----- From: thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On = Behalf That is very true. It's not really recommended, but you have the = option. It would be a much better solution to have a SAN or NAS in two = locations, have two nodes per cluster and replicate the data between the shared storage. That would give you full redundancy (service level, and site = level for DR).
