Phil,
Thanks for the tip, but it still did not work. For what ever reason it
keeps backing up /mnt/hailee--the nfs mount. Any other suggestions.

My experience with compression is that it doesn't work. I seldom get
more than 5GB over the rated uncompressed capacity.

Hello,
There is no need to run the FD in the background because it *automatically* by
default runs in the background, unless you explicitly suppress it; typically
to simplify debugging. In fact, if you try to run it in the background, it
will surely fail as you have noted.

Hi,
I need to backups many sql databases, located on differents servers but
with at least 200 db/servers.
So when restoring db most of the time it's only one db that need a restore.
The question is: is it possible with a fifo backup to split data in
directory/files record in the backup volume ?
