Are you using RAID on any one of them? How many HDs do you have on each system? Answer varies with the HD number and RAID setup if there is

Dear All,

Thanks for the Disk Cloning/System Cloning Suggestions provided .They all seem to be Ok.
Additionally,I need online Automated Replication of Dynamic Data (Transaction Logs and other vital Log files) to the Similar Box.
Are there any Tools through which I can Achieve this?
