Re: scipt to cron for tbtape

Luis, Try this via a shell script (pardon any minor problems, I'm just typing this in free-hand): #!/bin/sh if [ "$#" -ne 1 ] then echo "Usage: `basename $0` archive_level" echo " archive_level: 0 | 1 | 2" exit 1 fi # Check for $INFORMIXDIR, $TBTAPE, etc. here... LEVEL="$1" echo " $LEVEL " | $INFORMIXDIR/bin/tbtape -s # Include error checking/messaging here... # # End of script.
