Re: ontape on NT server

} Hi: } } I'm a new user of NT servers. I've just installed NT 4.0 onto my HP Netserver } LD Pro with a HP SureTape 5000. The backup works fine using NT backup. But } ontape -s failed with -1. } } The backup device in my onconfig is TAPE0. When I check the error message, it } means not owner. How do I give privilege to user informix to perform backup. } } Please advise. Urgent. } -- } Chaiw Kok Kee } Consultant } Multi-Purpose Information Technology } kkchaiw@mit.com.my } www.jaring.my/mphb/ } Hello Chaiw, I do not have access to an HP Netserver, but I do use Windows NT 4.0. The TAPEDEV in your onconfig file should read "\\\\.\\TAPE0" rather than just "TAPE0". You might also check to see if the user running the ontape command is a menber of the "Backup Operators" group. -- Regards, Walter S. Tyszka (wstyszka@ingr.com) * Standard disclaimers apply *
