In all those story links, there was no mention at all that their DR plan was even invoked. Maybe it wasn't deemed to be a significant enough failure to warrant executing their DR plan ??? Maybe they don't have a DR plan ??? I don't live in Virginia, so it doesn't affect me personally. At least I don't think it does. If Northrup-Grumman has to pay for this, who are there other customers ??? They may have to raise their rates to make up for the loss, so I actually might end up paying for it. Hmmmmm The Virginia Governor's office seems a little worried. Lot's of blame being aimed right at them. Do you think the outsourcer is feeling the same kind of heat ??? So what if they lose a client. They'll get another. I'd be interested in reading details about the array failure. Some of the comments questioned the likelihood of a dual failure. So what failed and when ??? Maybe the first failure went unreported or was ignored ??? A dual failure is pretty unlikely... There's a lot more to this than is being reported. I sure hope it's not buried. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
