Re: backup situation

Use the parameter ENDOPT *LEAVE on the save operation right before the web file.
When you are ready to save the web file, use SEQNBR *END.

Here is the problem:

We have customers doing a backup nightly, but since it backups up one file in
particular (their web file) no one can access their web site during this time.

Possible solution?:

To run a backup, excluding that file each night and then run a job scheduled
entry to backup just that file since it doesn't seem possible to run 2 scheduled
backups each night.

Questions:

How would you ensure that the job scheduled entry save didn't save OVER your
nightly backup?  Is there a parameter that can be set that will force the job
scheduled entry to search the tape, go to the end of the backup and then start
saving that file to tape?  Is there a better way of going about this?

Thanks in advance!
