I've done that before many times, it works fine.

I think it's a good solution for the situation you describe - if you have
problems with the log filling up, set up the DBBACKUP trigger to fire an
INCREMENTAL, instead of a full, to disk instead of tape.

Then write your FULL to tape when you have time.

Subject: DB backups


Is anyone doing db backups to disk using devclass type FILE?

I know, it's not necessarily a good thing, but right now we have a db that
is large enough that the log can fill before a full db backup can run.

Before I set this up, I'm wondering if anyone else is doing this.
