Achieve Business continuity in a DR situation Only for Filer Sharing which is core load of work - while each office serve as DR site for each other also there is a future expansion plan to expand this into 3rd site as well with 3 site fully DR protected.
Currently considering ...
1. Storage level replication through IBM Storage replication and use Windows cluster to achieve High Availability (i must buy license from IBM for replication)
2. Introduce NetApp boxes and migrate all data with ACL (3 levels of permission for accessibility structures done through Microsoft Active Directory)
