If you've got a license for Query/400, then you have a entitlement for
Web Query.

You may end up wanting some of the optional components, but it'd be
worth a look.

If you have a data backup at the HA site and a data backup at the production site then you have offsite storage built into the plan, correct? Its the same data and same libraries.
As far as loading up lic keys and PTF's... those have to be done regardless of HA or not. So there is no gain by having offsite data tape backups. That really has nothing to do with it. The fact is that don't have to send tapes out to a seperate location if they are already being backed up from the HA machine that is in another location. Unless both facilities are in areas where the same natural disaster could wipe out both place I would think you are ok. But in the vast majority of cases I think it would be overkill.

Actually on the early part (before discussing short comings of the HA machine) let me throw another wrinkle into the mix, fire. Backup tapes are destroyed from the primary machine. They weren't sent offsite.
Do you really think that after you have the lic and os loaded from DVD it's really only an hour or two to get your PTF's up to snuff, license keys, configuration, system values, edit codes, what not, HA config, and then start replicating data?

I still think you need to store backups off site and relying on data replication from your HA machine for everything is a mistake.
