We use DBS and it has really helped! It can also used at the disaster site to generate the recovery JCL, if there has been a change to the DASD configuration since we generated the recovery JCL. Very good product, great vendor! They are local to us and have actually come to a number of our DR tests to learn how to improve their product! -- John McKown Systems Engineer IV IT Administrative Services Group HealthMarkets(r) 9151 Boulevard 26 * N.
