Using more than one utility to backup Informix
2004-02-18 03:57:21
Hello guys,
I have one quick (hope easy) question about backing up Informix databases.
Is it safe to use two different backup tools independently to backup
Informix data?
I have Informix server, which was backed up using Ontape. Recently we
implemented TDP for Informix and started to use onbar. But Informix admin
still wants (at least for some time ) to use also Ontape.
I am not sure how these backup utilities manage Informix logs. Isn't it
possible that Ontape during its backup will backup also some logs which
will not then be backed up by onbar (will be marked as archived)? Is it
possible that later restore using onbar will not be done correctly because
of this? My version of Informix is
7.31UC3
Thanks
