I'm looking to save work, not add more or replace one with the other. Plus I have ZFS snapshots [1]. Either way, as long as I keep bdb libraries in sync on the machines, my initial tests show this is working as I expected. Now I'll just sit and wait for the corner cases where it won't work, but can't think of any. ;) [1] http://people.freebsd.org/~pjd/misc/zfs/zfs_snapshot.swf - -- Melvyn Sopacua ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9
