Good Morning, IDS 11.50.FC5 O/S AIX 5.3 I have successfully archived and restores a small test instance using openssl for encryption from the command line using cats and pipes. When I attempted to use the onconfig parameter BACKUP_FILTER, I got weird open ssl errors openssl:Error: '�������2' is an invalid command. I am "assuming" that this is because I have my filter name followed by the parameters. IE...BACKUP_FILTER openssl enc -aes-256-cbc -pass pass:anything My question, is anyone using openssl as a backup filter and if so, how are you handling the paramters? TIA, Dan

Okay, this was a lot easier than I made it. All you gotta do is place your entire string for both your BACKUP_FILTER & RESTORE_FILTER parameters inside a set of single quotes. Dan
