RE: Automize a complete save

["Raby, Steve \(GE Advanced Materials, consultant\)" <steve.raby@xxxxxx>]

Hello Jean Claude,

A bloke called Gary Skelton wrote a CL program that does unattended system 
saves that I have adapted to use on our system and it works very well. If you 
like I can give you the link to the site or maybe just send you the code.

Subject: Automize a complete save


Hi all,

I know that's not a new question and I found some stuff on archive. But I don't 
understand why there's no real solution about that.

As you know we had a great crash on a critical 9406-820 with OS 4.5 and we 
found out our saves were not OK. Now machine and its applications are OK. We 
think about making simple saves and fast recovery without mirroring. We tested 
"go save" with option 21. It took 45 minutes to save whole system on ultrium1 
tape (hope we have all datas as it is explained in several docs). This machine 
is critical, but has no application working whole night. So we have enough time 
to save. I would like to automize "go save" option 21 to be scheduled every 
night. I know the great difficulty is that we need whole system to be stopped 
to be sure all datas will be saved. Some ideas ?

Regards.
Jean Claude
