Re: Raw vs Cooked space?

We are not a 24X7 operation so we can afford to take the informix down for 3 hours at night to do the backup, which is what you do, and you are right my backup cant do all that you said. We are somewhat limited in our resources and there are hoops we have to jump through. One of them is that our box has only one tape device. This makes informix backups with logs backups somewhat cumbersome, although I am modyfing the process to back up the logical logs to disk.
