Re: Both ontape and onbar on the same system?

Remember the logs cannot be used interchangeably - If you use onbar to backup the logs , you must restore them with onbar - or vice versa. Other than that you should not have any problems doing both.

Please respond to mweallans@panacea .co.uk One of our clients has been using ontape successfully for some time but have been throwing away logical logs on the basis that they could restore to the previous night. I have persuaded them to look at onbar and to backup their logs and after a failure to get it working correctly with ISM they are now implementing a BakBone NetVault Storage Manager based solution. This is not without difficulty with the dialects of jargon - but we are getting there slowly. However their next challenge is that they would like to run both ontape and onbar for a period of time to backup the same server. I don't think that should present a problem - or does anybody think or know different? regards Malcolm sending to informix-list
