Is Double-take really good like that? I mean - when ot comes to incrementally replicating large files? I used to be a big fan of Octopus but recently had bad experience replicating a few Imail servers. Granted, each Imail server had ~10,000 mailboxes, that's probably ~50,000 files that constantly change because they are sending/receiving messages all the time. And some of those files were quite large too... Octopus simply choked trying to keep track of all changes - by the time it was done synchronizing a version of a certain file, that file probably changed five more times, the changes just snowballed. It seems to me that Double-take is similar to Octopus. Although I replicated one Imail server with a demo copy of Double-take and had somewhat better results. But maybe that Imail server was not as active as the others.

But if you just want the data replicated then if you tweek it (and not according to their support way's soultion) , it does the job. Their other solution Geo Cluster is so damn expensive that we decided it is not worth it. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Karen McLaughlin" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Exchange Discussions" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, September 12, 2002 9:28 AM Subject: Re: Exchange 2000 HA > Missy, when you say "doesn't do it nicely," does that imply that > it does not work well/reliably as well as not being worth the cost? > > - Karen > > > On Thu, 12 Sep 2002, Missy Koslosky wrote: > > > There aren't any real best practices for this, as Exchange doesn't do it > > nicely.
