Or LOGMSG ;-) We've abused that in the past to distinguish between release test and implementation. But be careful who checks that and how. We had a key application that worked well during tests and failed when we were live. They requested a backout until we found their code had an error in the "else" after the test. And that's one of the big risks of special code paths dealing with DR-testing. You really want those changes minimal so that they can be overlooked easy enough and tested in isolation. Once you run under a different node name etc, anyone (like TCPIP for example) will notice the difference and the value of your test may get less. Rob
