Re: backing up more then one instance
Posted in 1998
I am interested in knowing the storage manager in 7.3 too. We _are_ using
Legato and I have read the PDF document on informix web site about the
Universal server (which also includes oem version of Networker).
I notice Informix has made a different interface, a few restriction
(e.g., less parallelism) and possibly *don't* allow you to backup
normal filesystems as does the normal Networker.
But I could be missing something.
