Dan,

We have been using Lakeview's Mimix product for the last 3 years to
replicate our two 720s. We replicate everything and it works great.
We do nightly saves off our backup system while production continues to run.
When save is done, Mimix resynchs the backup system.
We also do routine switchovers to our backup system once a month to test
mimix and our precedures. This also allows us to routinely load PTFs and
cumes to keep us current. A planned switchover takes about 15-20 minutes.We
also have tested an emergency cutover (pull the plug on our production
system) and we had a signon screen from our backup system in 12 minutes -
with no loss of data.

Dan, feel free to contact me for more details.
