Re: Logical Logs - store on tape, disk or to /dev/null?

davep <davep@hmgcc.gov.uk> offerred: +Does Informix still require a terminal to be permanently logged in as +"Informix" to carry out the log backup to tape? That's a no-no in our +environment for security reasons, so we backup the logs to disk where +they get swept up by the Unix file system backup. That requirement is only present when using ontape. Both onarchive and onbar (preferred) support unattended backups, run via cron, etc. Dave ** Dave Kosenko <davek@summitdata.com> ** Director of Training Services (732) 469-4070 ** Summit Data Group (an Informix Authorized Education Center) ** Find my advice useful?
