Hi All,

We are in the beginning phases of redesigning our entire backup process to
consolidate the way we back things up. As it is now, we are not using
Networker to backup from raw disk. We are performing a database dump to disk
and backing up from their using Networker.  Can Networker backup and recover
from and to raw disk w/o any concerns?  Or is it best practice to perform
the database dumps as we are doing and backing up from there?  Additionally,
what is the "Full No DBF" backing up?  What's the point of backing up the
database while excluding the database files?

Thoughts on streamlining our backups are most welcome.

Thanks,
Mark
