Understood, that's why I'm looking for input. I'd like to come up with a reliable system, even though it's necessarily going to be a hair or two behind the 'live' databases. -----Original Message----- From: Valdis.Kletnieks () vt edu To: Leonard, Jason M.

How hard could it be to maintain a mirror or something close to a
mirror?
I'm willing to donate a box and a few hours a week. Email me off list
with
your input and I'll post the results.
A mirror would help if the primary server was unreachable. The problem being reported NOW is the spewage of data that claims to be correct. Unless you run your mirror in a "pull, wait 8 hours for verification, and THEN commit" mode, the mirror will be spewing the same broken data. Valdis Kletnieks Operating Systems Analyst Virginia Tech
