We have just purchased Netbackup to be used to back up a 3 terabyte database that runs on a Sun Sparc 450 (Informix 7.23 UC11). Our tape system is a Sun DLT 4000 (with tapes that can write up to 70 gig), connected to the 450 via a gigabyte line. The 3 terabytes are taken up mainly by our images stored in two separate blobspaces . I was wondering if any other Informix person has a large (1 terabyte and above) db that uses netbackup? Do you think Netbackup is a good product? What type of backup and restore times have you had? Thanks for any help Joe
