  Mirrored disks can be done with ccd.

  Mirrored servers are basically what Unix types call a cluster.  On
Novell this is easy, because Novell boxes are basically just file servers,
but a Unix box could be doing many different things.  Migrating tasks
from the failed system to the working system, and assumption
of the IP traffic, is difficult.
