Ken,

If you require a hot backup and you journal your
application on your production machine then it is
possible to use OS/400 Remote Journaling to your
backup box and use a third party mirroring product to
maintain a replica database on the 150. Remote
Journaling takes the database changes to the backup
box and they get applied in real-time. This is a good
Disaster recovery strategy as you can keep the two
machines as far apart as you want. OS/400 remote
journaling works with TCP/IP, SNA or over VPN.

A company called "Maximum Availability" market a
product called "NoMax" which creates a backup database
from the remote journal on the backup machine. It
would be pretty cheap for the size of your machines.
You can find out more at www.maxava.com.

Otherwise - there is no reason why you can't use your
150 to backup your 170 in a 'warm' environment with
manual tape backup and restore as long as you have the
OS at the same level.


Regards, Simon.
