What version of NetBackup? NetBackup usually relies on the ALARMPROGRAM (usually $INFORMIXDIR/etc/log_full.sh) file to backup the logical logs. If you can run a full backup, place the same NetBackup environmental variables used to run a full backup into your ALARMPROGRAM (i.e. INFXBSA_POLICY, INFXBSA_CLIENT, etc.). I noticed in the messages below: deimos:/u/informix/ism/index/deimos no cycles . . . I believe the directory is pointing to "$INFORMIXDIR/ism", which is Legato . . . not NetBackup. Re-check your configuration. Hope this information helps.

Yes, something is wrong, because before installing NetBackup(two months ago) we used ISM to backup our instance. Thank you, Brice -- Ciao, Marino Decaro
