No more gun sales in Pa.

[petey]

I heard that on the radio this morning on my way to work and just shook my head.

Being an IT guy one word comes to mind: Redundancy

I would think ALL of our State systems should have redundancy especially something as cruicial as a gun background check. If the primary fails or goes down, the redundancy (secondary system) should pick up and never skip a beat.

They SHOULD already have this in place! DUH... we must have a bunch of morons running the IT department down there.

Take down the primary, upgrade it while the secondary takes over with no down time. Flip the switch with the new upgrades and then upgrade the secodary system.

Basic IT stuff that should already be in place on such a system. Where in the hell is my Tax dollars going? Maybe we don't have people smart enough to think of such things.? Makes me wonder about the systems that have my personal information on it. If they can't even get this simple concept down, I wonder how secure the other systems are?? Probably not very at all....
