Re: How do you backup Domino/Notes Files on the AS/400?

If you have a need to run 7x24 you may want to consider purchasing 'Advanced 
Services' or 'Enterprise Server' for
your AS/400 Domino server.  With this you can start partitioning and 
clustering.  This will allow you to have two Domino
servers on one AS/400.  Actually you may have up to 16.  Clustering may best be 
explained, to the trained 400 mind, as
hot mirroring such as may be found with Mimix or the like.  Wasn't that hard to 
set up.  There are lots of benefits to this.
One big benefit is that you can bring down the backup server and and save it 
and the users still keep banging away on
the primary.  Let's say that on the first one you set up the data directory as 
/NOTES/DATA and on the second one you
set up the data directory as /SERVER2/NOTES/DATA.  Then you would do a:
ENDDOMSVR SERVER2
DLYJOB
SAV DEV('/QSYS.LIB/TAP01.DEVD') OBJ(('/SERVER2/NOTES/DATA/*')) UPDHST(*YES)
STRDOMSVR SERVER2
