Re: Ontape

Jay, We currently use OnArchive under Online 7.23 on a Sequent platform to backup a 170 Gb & 105 Gb DB. OnArchive works OK but we are currently moving to an Onbar solution. As far as OnArchive problems go, just keep it simple. We have defined 10 or so dbspacesets and use a simple ksh script to run each OnArchive command. Knock on wood, we have not had many problems with OnArchive since upgrading to 7.23. I guess time will tell. If you have any specific questions, just ask. Doug B.
