How about encrypting the volume in its entirety before deletion? I've been through the DR/deletion exercise a few times, and used an in-house utility to overwrite the disk. If available, however, would encryption not be a possible solution in that even if a shadow of the data were left, it should at least be in a format that is not readable?
I ask because some sites may already have invested in an encryption tool, and it might be an imaginative use of an existing asset. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
