Good question! I suppose XRC could be used solely as an offsite vaulting mechanism.
In a cold site setup, it could save NALC operating system software dollars, but those charges aren't significant enough (to me) to recommend an XRC push. John's scenario gives a good reason for a push, but that, hopefully, is not an ongoing situation. :-) Most scenarios discussed thus far relate to DR considerations where existing CEC(s) are available. Push? Just say NO! <grin> Bob Richards (GDPS/XRC user) -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Joe jeffries Sent: Friday, January 05, 2007 9:48 AM To: IBM-MAIN@BAMA.UA.EDU Subject: Re: Data replication at a remote site - elementary doubt Bearing in mind that XRC was intended for eXtended Remote Copy, what would be the point of NOT having a datamover at the remote site?
