I've also used the unix/linux OS-level cp command
to make a duplicate copy of our entire production database for
development use evey night for the past 12 years, and have yet to run
into a single issue with file integrity.
That's only possibly valid if you don't use dynamic
processes setup.
Thanks,

One question that needs answering first though is are they using UniData

How long does their weekly backup take?
Are they really 24x7, or do they shut down for the backup?
How do they currently do the backup? Uvbackup? Cpio?
How much of their data is outside of u2 on unix files?

OK - assuming they are on a late enough version of UniData, the best way
is to use the dbpause to pause the updates, then backup - yes using
mirrors would make that an easier process - then dbresume. If they are
