Re: Ontape Recovery -- Help!!!
The status is quite normal. An onstat -D should help - basically each used
page (determined by onstat -d) will be written to once, so you can estimate
how far your restore has got.
6 hours seems a long time for a restore though. Also 750MBytes of memory
for your Informix instance - you must have quite some shared memory cache!
