We use ontape to do continuous log backups. On Sundays, we bring down the instance (onmode -yuk). This effectively knocks off all users so that we can perform system maintenance. Before the recycle occurs, I would like to gracefully stop ontape -c and trap the output generated by ontape. Any thoughts how I can mimick a "Ctrl/C" and capture the output?
