Re: High availability questions

Brad,

        I hope that the people managing your E-911 dispatch center running
on
iSeries/400 feel different about this than you.  Otherwise,  when the system
is back up
after 2 hours down time they may not save much of your home but the basement
foundation  :-)

        24 / 7 / 365 is a VERY real need for many operations where the
iSeries excels !!

Used MIMIX since the early days of the System/38 !!!!

AS SOON AS I KNOW THE ANSWERS
THEY CHANGE THE QUESTIONS
