Hi Andy:

What are the reasons for not using OS mirroring? (We will be
running on NT)  How about h/w mirroring?  What are the
advantages of using ADSM mirroring over these?

Thanks,

Tim Rushforth

2) Make sure your mirrors are on separate physical devices, and
(ideally)
separate controllers. The idea is to physically isolate the mirrors
as much as
possible. Also, you didn't say what operating system your ADSM
server is
running on. Some operating systems, like AIX, have mirroring
capability built
in to them. Make sure you are using ADSM mirroring and not
operator system
mirroring.
