Re: [foxboro] I/A Batch 5.3 backups

If your AW has mirrored disks, there is a nice solution.  Foxboro has the
backup_mirror script, that lets you do a backup with the system running.  It
takes the secondary disk in the mirror set offline, backs it up, then puts
it back online and remirrors.

I have an AW51B that is running I/A Batch 5.3.
It is my understanding that the batch directory cannot be backed up
while batch is running. (Never saw this in writting anywhere, just word
of mouth). This system runs 360 days a year, shutdown occurs every 3-4
months for 24 hours or less.
Backup's are made during the shutdown. However, whenever a restore is
required, the data is 3-4 months old
and many recipes have been added or changed during that time.

Does anyone have a better solution? If so would you share?

thanks,
