Re: Archive error 78

Sam, I run 5.05 on AIX 3.2.5 and do not get such an error. One questions for you though, do you run a backup script from a cron job? I have one that is working, but the archive date is not getting reset correctly. Each Archive shows the last archive's date.

While doing archive, the archive console prompt a error no 78 and all the users will hung up for several minutes until I kill the process 'tbtape -s'. I have report this problem to Informix and they said that this is a IBM hardware problem. Does anyone have the same problem? Could anybody tell me which PTF should be applied to eliminate this bug? Thank's a lot. Regards, Samuel Chan (samuelc@vol.net, Hong Kong)
