                Currently we are using sysback which will backup all volume
groups and create a boot image.  We haven't had the boot work to good as of
yet but mksysb does work very well.

                Question if you have a lot to backup across multi boxes it
may be time to look into an enterprise backup software like legato, REEL, or
Veritas.

                My experience was REEL backup from STK worked the best and
restore/DR restores were easy.

                Hope this helps.

                                Hi,

                                In our company we are using different
commands to backup data to a 8 mm
                                tape.

                                But, what are the most useful commands to :

                                        - have a full backup of several
volume groups

                                        - have a daily based backup of
changed data


                                We use several different volume groups on
several internal and external
                                disks.
                                There are several gigabytes of data ( ex. df
-k)
