The MAPICS backup also manages the transaction entry files. We have
resolved this problem by doing a MAPICS unattended backup to disk and
adding pre- and post-backup programs to backup the other libraries and
objects that we want to save to tape. In the post-backup command, we
backup AMSLIB to tape which is the library where disk backups are
stored.

Subject: [MAPICS-L] Backup question
Running Mapics XA
We are currently backing up Mapics data using the Mapics procedures in
AXZU11 - Schedule Unattended Backup
Question is, does this do anything other than backup Mapics data to
tape? We want to start backing up all of our data onto one tape using
Backup assistant rather than having to work around application backups.
If we stop doing the Mapics backup and include the Mapics libraries in
the regular backup, we can do it all in one step. The fear is that
Mapics is doing something else. Fear founded or not?
