RE: Nightly saves

["Jones, John \(US\)" <John.Jones@xxxxxxxxxx>]

None of the above.  We use BRMS instead of steps 3/4/5/6 and
save-while-active instead of steps 1/2.  Main apps are JDE World and
EnterpriseOne.

Once a month we actually do go restricted and do a full system save (via
BRMS) followed by an IPL.

Subject: Nightly saves

I need to revisit our backup approach and I'd like to conduct a poll.
Do you do any of the following for your nightly backup?

1. End QINTER SBS?
2. End just active jobs in QINTER?
3. Save to disk?
4. Perform a GO SAVE 21?
5. Perform another GO SAVE option?
6. Perform your own SAVLIB CL?

We do 2 and 6.  (Actually, we count on our ERP system [MAPICS] to do 2,
but it doesn't always do what we need it to).

Thanks,
