Re: Complete HA system

[Chris Hunter <cjhunter@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Peter -

I would say the obvious match to your requirements is Idratek -
available here in the UK & in Poland, and used already in the US also
... with your IT skills, I'm sure you could make it work for you ...
it's evolving, but already has all the essentials, and the Idratek guys
are really helpful  ...

have a really good look at :

http://www.idratek.com/

and :

and (not Idratek, but cannot be ignored !) :

good luck !

Chris
