Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Disaster Recovery
I have you beat. A SAN storage vendor has arrived at my company promising "DR in a box". Our legacy EDI system isn't on "that storage", but a shared adapter storage. They advised us that we would be running our EDI on "NFS mounted drives". Our hardware is "too old" to put on the SAN.

We were laughing in Oct/Nov as the vendor interviewed us and proposed plans.

They were approved by our board, so now we're crying. Our clustered file storage solution is on the "wrong vendor". In Oct/Nov advised them that the testing alone would grow our dept by 4 people. We're losing 1 person.

Add to that SarbOx, Production Support for Legacy system, developing the replacement system for Legacy, and the No More Pain project and we're over the top.
