If the SAMBA crosses the network, then I think you might run into UVNet issues. If it doesnt cause too much trouble, just create a type 19 file and put all the data that you want to off load there. Then you can archive the data at the OS level.
I had to do something like this on a per record basis for a printing system. It wasnt a high volume of transactions. What I did was to write to the sequential file. After every write, I called a VOC record that moved the record at the OS level to the remote directory. Since this wasnt a mission critical operation, it was perfect for what needed to be done. If this was mission critical, then UVNet is supposed to handle locking and integrity and maybe worth looking at. If SAMBA is on the same machine, then just create a VOC record to point to the file.

I have tried the COPYI FROM PRODUCT TO CONV.DATA/CUST.TXT but this does not work since the CUST.TXT does not exist. I want to copy selected Universe files to text file so that these can be burned to CD-ROM for an offsite storage. Management is clamoring for redundant backups and media in wake of Katrina and Rita storms. Any suggestions? Garry Smith Dir.
