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?
