The HP UX sys admin showed me that the backup starts at the root directory and copies everything from there on - each night and every night. That seems like a lot of extra copying, but that's another story.
Since the db is shut down 2 hours before the backup kicks off, we should be getting a good db backup. However, I am finding the following messages in the Omni logs. Can you explain what the message means? Warning: /u04 is mounted to a different file system. Directory backed up as an empty directory.
