Hello Networkers and Informixers, in the Informix Dynamic Server 7.30 package, there is a component called ISM (Informix Storage Manager) that is used to backup the database server with the Informix "onbar" utility via the XBSA interface. As I understand it, ISM is a scaled-down version of Legato Networker. I have the full version of Networker (SNI OEM version 4.2C), and Informix lists Networker as one of the XBSA-compatible storage managers that can be used with Informix. My question is: Do I need to buy any extra software (like the Net- worker "Business Suite Module for Informix") to backup my database with "onbar" and Networker, or can I get it to work with what is already included?
