Glen, Good thoughts here as always, thanks. Right now, the UV db is not fully replicated to the MSSQL tables, rather the other way around (for the most part). The ISAM WCS tables also update UV. Therefore, at present, the UV db comes closest to being the reference, and it still runs the business.

Hi Baker, In response to: " make an almost convincing argument to do it on the dedicated target " If the target is another shared system, then it is often not a good candidate for this type of thing. I guess what I've often seen is a dedicated processor on a workstation that was used to trans

I think the only real problem that might be anticipated is if you use HP drivers, you might expect having to reboot fairly regularly to clean up memory leaks. I'm not sure if it affects Unidata, but on uniVerse, the HP drivers, specifically JetDirect drivers, caused one system I migrated to an MS

There is some confusion in the market place as to what raid 0+1 and raid 1+0 are - in fact most times they are the same. I think the confusion stems from you looking at it either from the os point of view or from the hardware side of things. Many h/w vendors (like dell) approach it from the har
