IBM Capacity Backup for Power Systems

["Graap, Kenneth" <Kenneth.Graap@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm looking into upgrading our Power5 550 to a Power6 550 with a CBU
(IBM Capacity Backup for Power Systems) option.
 
I'd like to be able to just park a CBU system at our company hot site
and use it to test DR every few months and of course have it available
if we need to do a real DR... Our recovery requirements just don't
justify the cost of a full data replication HA solution. If we need to
go to the hot site, we can take 3 or 4 days to recover our IBM i from
backup tapes.
 
I'm wondering if anyone is currently using a CBU option as described
above?
