RE: AS/400 Application Recovery Services

[Chris Bipes <chris.bipes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

We have a fully real time mirrored system halfway across the US for our
customers to do their transaction processing.  We split traffic between here
and there.  It cannot run our accounting etc. but does run all of the
customer online transaction processing via POS dial up and web.  We send our
daily backup tape off site but if our main building burned to the ground or
was swallowed up in an earth quake, we would have to scramble to things
going again.  Unfortunately the owner does not believe a hot, tested backup
site is necessary.

Subject: AS/400 Application Recovery Services





Are there any users who have disaster recovery plans in place for there
critical applications on the AS/400?  Do you know
know of anyone who provides disaster recovery services for applications on
the AS/400 or if such services are provided?
My AS/400 resides in Southwest Texas and this area is prone to Hurricanes
this time of year.  If such a thing happened, I
would like to send our Admin person along with the backup tapes and restore
them to another AS/400, provide a limited
number of our customers (all over the US) with access so that they could
continue with limited services.

Any feed back would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Joyce
