Greetings,

         Well, there looks to be four major opinions on this:

         1)  Swap the ID prom from the failed board to the new board - Is 
this supported by Sun Service or would it nullify our service contract for 
this system

         2)  Have a tmp license around at all times.  These expire about a 
month after issue so you'll need to set up a process for keeping them current

         3)  If you have the expensive 24/7 support for Veritas, they'll 
issue a tmp license at all hours

         4)  Run in a cluster so if you lose one system you're not down at 
all.  What are people's opinion's of sun cluster?  I run VMS clusters and 
True 64 clusters here already and thier great - how would a sun cluster 
compare?

         thanks for everyone's input.

         Paul
