RE: FTP Capable Backup Sites

[Chris Bipes <chris.bipes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ok.  I was thinking something like production libraries and such out to FTP without the save file first.  I do not have the disk space to create and save to save files.

Hi Chris,

We have two different approaches.  A regular backup (think system save) and
one we do for source code and certain compiled objects (Amazon S3).

For the Amazon S3 one we create *SAVF objects in the IFS and then FTP them
to Amazon S3 via automated/scheduled script.
