I would recommend it as a system imager and backup solution but on maximum compression it takes a lot of time. However if you require a 24x7 fault tolerant solution I would still recommended a cluster solution regardless of what the app is providing. HP has MC ServiceGuard which is a good product and can be customized. RedHat also has cluster services but I have not looked into it. But all cluster products require redundant hardware.
