Hello everybody, I have a few questions regarding the backup of Informix V5 database. Question 1 : Is it possible and what will be the most efficient way to backup Informix database of size 50GB in "unattended" mode ? Question 2 : Can Informix database be backed up to tape stacker with autoloader ? If it can, is there any implications ? Question 3 : Is there any backup software available which provide an interface (API) to the Informix backup utility so that central backup management/administration is possible for both unix file systems and Informix database ? Thank you in advance for any answer provided. Chit Boey
