[Veritas-bu] Non Cluster failover

Hi, As part of my first forays into NBU , as well as trying to get VCB working J I’m also trying to set up failover. Trouble is for this system, our day-to-day support team have specified they do not want a clustered master. Not being that experienced in NBU or AIX it’s a nice big learning curve for me J We’ll be running AIX and NBU 6.5 so I was thinking maybe have /usr/openv as it’s own LUN on the primary master and a /usr/openv LUN on the secondary . Install on the primary and install on the secondary . Then stop the services on the secondary , and set up a mirror from the primary, overwriting the secondary ( we’ll be using DS8K’s & metro-mirroring) then in a dr, remount the secondary . Would this work and what configs changes would be required eg to get emmserver working etc The set up will be two sites, AIX with a media server in both sites , and possibly a w2k3 media server in both sites too , master at one and failover master at the other
