Keeping everything "live" is not acceptable, regardless of how good your storage is. The latencies involved in accessing offline systems is a feature, not a bug: It is much harder to accidentally destroy an offline copy than it does to destroy an online one. If multiple offline copies are stored in different locations inside locked vaults, accidental destruction becomes very hard indeed. :-) -- Ben Scott <bscott@ntisys.com> | The opinions expressed in this message are those of the author and do not | | necessarily represent the views or policy of any other person, entity or | | organization.
