Importance: High Hello all, I would like to clarify some queries related to NT informix backups. In our Informix NT box, i need to setup the database backups & restores. We have the VERITAS backupexec agent installed on this box and the Veritas master server exist on a remote server. Questions -------------- 1) I was told that there is no Informix NT database agent for Veritas. Does anyone use ONBAR-VERITAS backup environment on NT environment ? 2) If i perform the normal filesystem backup with VERITAS for the Informix DB, do i have to perform in offline or online database mode ? 3) Could anyone post the NT equivalent device path of say /dev/rmt/0 as in Unix environment ? 4) How do i specify the TAPEDEV on this box since the storage unit is attached to the remote master server on NT ?
