We only have one master/media server running on Solaris.

We take a Solaris flasharchive of the master and burn it on a dvd.

We then apply the flash archive to the DR server and use BMR to recover 
all our other systems.

Up to now, it has worked well.

The flasharchive is approaching 4GB, so we will need to move the Dual 
Layer Dvd's soon.

&gt; Given a DR scenario that involves offsite tapes being shipped to the<br>
&gt; DR site, is there any documented procedure for recovering if the DR<br>
&gt; site will only have one server available to serve as a master/media<br>
&gt; server while the production environment has 1 master/media and 2 media<br>
&gt; servers?<br>
&gt; <br>
&gt; Is it possible to do a bprecover of all of the required media servers<br>
&gt; catalogs onto the one server or will this cause problems? Any ideas
or<br>
&gt; suggestions? If I'm going to need 3 servers and supporting<br>
&gt; infrastructure at the DR site for the test being scheduled for august,<br>
&gt; I'm going to need to let somebody know ASAP.<br>
