Dale, Did you think of changing the default of the SAVSAVFDTA command. My idea is to change the default of OUTPUT parameter to *PRINT. This will give you a printout of everything that is saved. No need to re-mount or re-read the tape. -----Original Message----- From: DaleGindlesperger@xxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:DaleGindlesperger@xxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, December 02, 2004 11:39 AM To: MAPICS ERP System Discussion Subject: RE: Automating backups Michael, We use a 3570 Magstar tape drive (fast when we bought it - sigh). Tape backups take 90 minutes, back to disk takes 30 minutes. When I do the MAPICS Copy disk backup to tape, the DSPTAP shows QTEMP, AMFLIB, AMTLIB. If I do either of the options they gave me (SAVLIB of AMSLIB or SAVOBJ of the required objects), it only shows AMSLIB. I'd like it to match.

What other things does MAPICS give you? Just curious.. You do a save to disk because of the speed? How long does your backup take? What tape drive do you use? I know that if you are using the LTO drives, the save is almost as fast as to DISK, and then you would be able to control the ejecting (which you should always do) but before you do that, you can do a dsptap.

Currently, we run an unattended MAPICS backup to disk (for speed) during the 3rd shift lunch break (3am). Then during 1st shift, I run the MAPICS "Save disk backup to tape" option. Then I have to reload the tape and do a DSPTAP *PRINT to satisfy the SARBOX people. Unfortunately, the "Save disk backup to tape" is interactive only, and it auto-ejects the tape at the end, which precludes me from using Robot to do that portion (I have to reload the tape to get the DSPTAP printout). I asked the response line what that option does and was told to either do a SAVLIB of AMSLIB, or SAVOBJ of the various objects in AMSLIB (AMFBCKM, AMTBCKM, yadda, yadda), but that doesn't give me the same thing that I get when I manually run the "Save disk backup to tape". Has anyone on this thread written their own version of the "Save disk backup to tape"?
