Data Protector Query

We currently use the ontape utility to back up our database to a DLT8000= tape drive and perform logical logging to a DDS 3 tape drive. =20 We are planning on getting HP Data Protector software, along with a new LTO= tape library with two tape drives. As I understand it, we will be using= the onbar utility to back up the database to the tape library, and need= licenses for the two LTO drives.=20 =20 Do I continue to use the ontape utility for logical logging? Will I also= need a DP license for the DDS drive? =20 Cheers Gary March=20 Unix System Administrator=20 NIB Health Funds Limited 384 Hunter Street=20 Newcastle NSW 2300=20 PH. 02 4921 2466=20 Fax 02 4925 3548=20 Mobile 0418 412 390=20 E-mail: g.march@nib.com.au=20 =20 = **************************************************************************= *** The information transmitted in this message and attachments (if any) are= intended only for the person or entity to which it is addressed.

When = using onbar for full backups (level-0) you have to use onbar for logical log ba= ckup, too. = There was (is?) an unsupported possibility to use 'ondatartr' (onarchive-= tool) together with onbar (or mirror-split-copies) - but that's not supported and may no= t work with the most current or with new IDS version. = Regards, Andreas Kutsche ------------------------------------------------ SPAR Oesterreichische Warenhandels-AG Hauptzentrale Europastra=DFe 3 A-5015 Salzburg = Telefon : +43 662 4470 24423 E-Mail : Andreas.KUTSCHE@spar.at Internet: http://www.spar.at ------------------------------------------------ = ----LNX_Wed_Jun_16_2004_10:13:58_V3.33----
