Check out also FirstWatch from Veritas http://www.veritas.com .  It does not "replicate the system" (mirroring?) but
provides a hot standby solution that will failover in a couple of seconds.  Agents are provided and can be developed to
make decisions about when a failover should occur (a table in a database becoming corrupt or a service stopping).  Th
product is fairly easy to install and IMHO very reliable.
