Automatic backup policy for Informix
The most convenient way to back up your database is to set up schedules for automatic backups.
When the NetBackup scheduler invokes a schedule for an automatic backup, the ON-Bar scripts run as follows:
In the same order as they appear in the file list
On all clients that have them (that is, matching path names)
The ON-Bar scripts start the database backup.
Instructions for how to add a new schedule or change an existing schedule for automatic backups are available.
