I think this was already answered by Tilo :-). > 2. Which backup solution will be the best for SAPDB > other than veritas? I must answer this because maybe some of the backup tool vendors are also reading here: There are two products on the market which work with SAP DB / MaxDB in the best way. These are ADSM / Tivoli (IBM) and Legato's NETWORKER. Both of them can handle the pipes from SAP DB / MaxDB directly and therefore you don't need the adapter programs from backint for Oracle etc. I know that HP promised the same abilities to handle pipes for OMNIBACK for a very long time now, but as far as know, it's still not implemented. They promise all the time. But this pipe solutions is really nice and fast and easy to implement, much easier than Backint !! But if the vendors don't offer this nice solution the only way to use your backup tool is to implement the backint for Oracle. Directly speaking with Backint for Oracle we implemented a solution which is a great step backwards (comparable with "not using pipes in Unix" - I know, you can't imagine this) and storing the things normally running though the pipe back to disk and transfer it from there to Backint for Oracle. Backint for Oracle only can handle/save files :-(((. > Please advice. thank you. > Steve Ciao Ralf _______________________________________________ sapdb.general mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://listserv.sap.com/mailman/listinfo/sapdb.general
