  Well, that's good knews too, I mean, good to know. Another reason not to
  start with SQL-back track....

  Thanks!

On the other hand, we found that using SBT to ADSM (as it was then) was
faster than dumping from SYBASE to tape.  As this application continues to
grow, SBT to TSM still keeps the performance advantage.  In addition, SBT
also keeps track of intermediate log dumps and will do incremental dumps of
the system.  And version control is also very good.  But installation and
configuration may be daunting: none of our ORACLE users have gotten very
far with SBT for ORACLE.
