What would happen if there was a site disaster and the data was only on the
disk which is no longer available to perform restores?
I guess what I am asking is, without sending DIRMC off-site, can you
recover from a site disaster?

Is the directory information you referring about related to Windows
systems? You should use the DIRMC client option to store all your
directory information in a DISK based storage pool (DISK or FILE), so that
it remains on faster quicker access media for restore purposes. (Dont let
that stuff go to tape for the reasons you have outlined below.)

The DIRMC client option is not really required for Unix based systems, as
the database has enough space to store that information.
