Chris,
add the options -notag -limit 1 to your command line.
The -notag stops UV from updating the header of each record after it is
included in the backup.
The -limit 1 stops uvbackup from trying to use the shared-memory feature,
which can severely impact the performance.

Thanks for the put-down, oh Senior Exhaulted Programmer Mecki.
Two useful ditties were included to remind we juniors:
1) the user perspective is supreme - way too much code is generated by
slick programmers with total disregard for the user experience.
2) I did learn this morning that the

Try INPUT X,-1 to see if anything is in the input buffer, then KEYIN()
to get a single keystroke. That will get the backspace. Depending on
your needs, you may need to check the input buffer because KEYIN will
sit there until the cows come home if there's nothing there. This is
great (with a

In the past for a small client who had a overnight 'dead' period, I used a

First off, I've never seen that syntax before. Do you mean:
DIM X(25)
or do you mean you are setting X to the 25th value in a dimensioned variable?
And I don't understand what you mean when you say some records get taken out.
How are they taken out?
I'm a little confused by your question.
Yes,
That is correct DIM X(25) to initialize X, how do we then get the size of X?
Thanks,
Chris

First off, I've never seen that
Dimensioned arrays do not change their sizes.
If you DIM x(25), the size of x is 25
It's not like a dynamic array
However, when you MATWRITE the array to disk, it will only write out
up to the last physical data in the array, and ignore the trailing
blank slots.

We're trying to create the dimensioned array at run time with a size based on a
variable, which works in UniVerse
when using the -STATIC.DIM option. We need to know (in another program), what
the size of that dimensioned array is.

You can redimension an array as long as it is not a common variable. This
tends to be a “slow” process, or at least one that you do not want to do each
time that you add something to the array.
You can use inmat( X ) to get a vector on the size of the array, as you might
want to do within a

I do an additional archival backup with cp at the linux OS level
before and after our month-end batch processing since that's the data we
typically have to refer back to. I bought a 4TB iomega NAS appliance
that was relatively inexpensive just for this purpose. The archive
