I'm woindering about AS/400 backup solutions. I've got small 400s, but I'm wondering what it is like out there with bigger ones. How much DASD are you using? How much backup are you doing every night? (how many GB) Are you using save while active (I assume most people today do.) Do you do bigger weekly or periodic backups? Have you had to do a restore in the last six months? Did it interrupt or degrade your ability to accept new business? I've heard one of the problems with partial restores is that you have to start with tape one and go in sequence, even if it is on tape five. Any way around that? Do you backup during the day, or on second or third shift? Are you using mutliple tapes? How many? A robot library? Is anybody duplicating their backup tapes? Can you write two tapes at once (each a copy of the other)? Do you keep a backup set onsite and another offsite? -- Brad Jensen brad@elstore.com President Electronic Storage Corporation Tulsa OK USA 918-664-7276 LaserVault Report Retrieval & Data Mining www.Laservault.com www.eufrates.com - Add distance learning to your site with easy course preparation
