Nasty Bug in Onbar on NT
Posted in 1998
After about a weeks worth of communication with the UK tech support, I've confirmed that there is a bug/feature in the Informix Server v7.2x under NT ( and possibly 7.1x, but apparently not 7.3x). If you have a db-space with more than 2 gig of data in it (in multiple chunks), then when you do a level-0 backup of that space up with on-bar (either a whole system backup or a list of dbspaces), any space that generates more than 2 Gig of data won't be backed up to tape. However, on-bar will say in its log that it has completed backing it up, and doesn't give any indication of any error. I just thought I'd let you know, as we only found this by accident, and it could *really* ruin somebodies day.
