Well I was really after some stuff specifically about their DR edition which is not a straight replication solution, but seems to be more of a clever twist on a HA product to produce a DR solution which includes recovery up to the last transaction.

It looks pretty interesting - their web site claims that remote journals can be spun off to another box (which can be a cheap linux box) and then in conjunction with a restore the entire box can be recovered up to the last transaction. Presumably there are tools that make this a little more manageable than it sounds off the cuff.

My interest is somewhat academic at this stage - I'm just curious as to whether this is a viable approach which can be used to produce an outcome of having no transaction lost in the event of a system loss, and whether anyone on here had actually used the product to do this or tested it.

I seem to recall one story about a vendor's reluctance to admit the
problem was their fault but was instead IBM's fault.  However I can't find
that.

One thing I have discovered is that people may be a little freer with
secured nonlist email, or maybe just an unrecorded phone call.  Some of
the vendors have quite aggressive lawyers.
