Re: unattended backup

I wrote a small program in C, which opens tbtape as subprocess, with stdin and stdout connected to my program by pipes. It works very well. In fact, it does even more: It takes one part of an archive (10MB), and copies it to another machine through LAN. Then, it tells to tbtape that 'next tape' was inserted. Simple and effective, especially for host with small disk with filesystem and much bigger informix raw device, having no streamer. If you want to know more about it, e-mail me or forward this thread.
