That's what I like...
"As others have mentioned, you can pause the database. If you've got a
mirror then DBPAUSE the database, break the mirror, and DBRESUME. "
Sounds so simple yet can be so complex and expensive. There are so many
"ifs" with the term "break the mirror" it's not much of a wonder that
most small businesses never go down that path; as much as we'd all like
to! :-)
Wouldn't it be nice if we had a simple white-paper describing this
functionality so the next batch of inexpensive servers we bought we
could accomplish this. Presently I have to shut down the database and
keep it shutdown for the 30-60 minutes the backup runs. :-( Jeeze,
we have simple Windows backup scripts we've shared and would always
share; you'd think U2 would have this down pat and distributed onto
their site or to the wiki. Oh well, should anyone figure out a simple,
effective and inexpensive way to do this sort of thing, please post it.

Hi All,
We're running UniVerse 10.1.17 on AIX 5.3 and the backup feature
included within our vendors software is pretty basic and only allows
backups of Universe to tape.
