We do mirroring of our production Adabas databases on HDS disk storage to our remote DR site. Adabas' restart and autorestart facilities after power outage, etc. is quite reliable.
I would also like to point out that in the more recent releases of Adabas two new operator commands - SUSPEND and RESUME - are available to synchronize Adabas databases with the snapshot-type backups provided by the various storage vendors. The commands can also be issued programmatically.
