Hello I need to automate backup of archive/logical logs using ontape. (I think it is simpler than using onautovop). I use Informix 7.10 on Solaris 2.4. Can you help me with: 1.How do I bring up "ontape -c" when I bring up my application without dedicating a terminal? 2. How do I automate the <Return> to the "press return" prompted by ontape. 3. To stop ontape -c I plan to do a "kill -2 pid", is that ok? Would appreciate if you send responses to me directly to my email address mentioned below. Thank You GAYATHRI gashok0@ftw.paging.mot.com
