Re: data bigger than tape

Ahhh, ONArchive... Using ONArchive is liked being married to a mysterious woman, who it would take more than one lifetime to understand. We use it extensively where I work with success now that we know how to tame it, but it is not for the faint of heart. I wrote a Perl script which invokes ontape so that it is possible to automate the execution of ontape even if it goes to >1 tape. There is a copy on: http://informixhandbook.com Click on software and look for "db_ontape". Write me if you need more information.
