Danish term

spejlade computere

Danish to English Tech/Engineering Computers: Hardware part of tender for system
This is something I've never heard of! It's in a tender to provide a broadband system, and these are the central computers.
Sentence: Systemets centrale computere pa xxvej i xx er opbygget som to *spejlede comutere*, begge med redundante til- og afgange.
Anyone know this please? I have until 14.00 GMT today.
Advice appreciated.

Thanks very much for your advice - please feel free to put it in a proper answer. I'll listen to advice from anyone who happens to know something (specialisation in one category doesn't mean you don't know anything at all about another one :)).
Matthias Quaschning-Kirsch May 12, 2006:
Mirrored computers are identical computers containing the same data. It is a measure of redundance. If one machine crashes, you still have the others.
Matthias Quaschning-Kirsch May 12, 2006:
No. Mirrored computers! As you restricted I did not put a regular answer, because folks are used to grumble.
Helen Johnson (asker) May 12, 2006:
Indeed I have, not to mention a 'reflected' one ;), but since this is part of a major and important tender and I don't understand the concept (mirrors fixed to PCs? PCs mirroring actions?), I need to try and make sure I get it right, grateful from advice from others to help me to do this.
Matthias Quaschning-Kirsch May 12, 2006:
Have you thought about just a mirrored translation? ;-)
