Subject: Back up questions


Hi all,

I have a backup question for you. We are starting to have problems with our
backups and getting everything on our tapes. I don't know how much detail
you want. But basically we are doing a "SAVLIB *ALLUSR" and excluding
non-essential libraries. This is obviously not a real good situation. We
have one system going across 2 tapes now, but we have to initialized them
daily. I have heard about SAVCHGOBJ but we aren't 100% sure how that works.
How would we restore a backup then? We would like to try and not get a new
tape drive, but might have to in the future. We are getting to the point
that we can't do a single tape anymore does anyone have any suggestions to
either cut down the size of the backup or to change our backup procedures?
