Back in the days following September 11, 2001 there were recommendations and edicts floating around that 350 miles is a good number. Within the financial markets industry, there was even talk that this would become part of SEC rules and enforced. I don't believe that ever happened. Although I can't find the SEC draft papers on this anymore, I'm sure there is doc available. I have these book marks: http://labmice.techtarget.com/disaster.htm http://www.continuitycentral.com/ http://www.disaster-resource.com/ And there is also a certification group for Disaster Recovery Planners that should have lots of recommendations. I can't find their website link at the moment. Google BCP DR and you'll get a ton of hits. You might even be able to find something relevant to your industry. We are about 1800 miles from our hot site, so we are fairly confident that a regional disaster won't affect both sites. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
