RE: Consistency checking in HA solutions

I guess my question would be, have you Ever found a block that was not in
sync.  (If the two computer systems ever did get outta sync, finding out a
couple weeks later would be rather unfortunate, imo/o
(opinion/observation).)

| We're using Vision Solutions which offers a CRC Sync check as well as the
