Must I use 3rd party software to do the remote journalling or can the OS be 
used to accomplish this?

How much are you using between your two on-site systems? 

1% of 10MB .... 1/2% of 100MB  ???

Thanks,


I am currently doing some remote journaling to another box (in the same
room).  How much bandwidth would I need to have to Remote journal to
another site? (MFG ERP system, moderate to light transactions...)

I'd recommend one big journal for the entire lib, unless you have a file
or two that have a million changes an hour or something like that. You
might want to isolate those to separate journals... 

If you have another i5 at a remote location, consider using Remote
Journaling to that location and backup the receivers over there
occasionally.

Using remote journaling to another system will insure that you are able
to recover transactions between backup tape rotation (incase you have a
fire or something and loose your production system) without having to
backup receivers every hour and send those tapes off site...

I think I am at the point I want to Journal all my production files.

I am looking to get some more disk, and set it up in another ASP, for
performance sake. Change and backup the Journal Receiver's every hour or
so
(back up to a remote site...)


Should I use multiple journals, combining like files, or just one big
journal for the whole library?
