This was a new one for me. I'm having a database restored using the "latest" and greatest, with SAN, and Omniback, and putting it on a different server. Some of my disks were "full", some pretty close which has never been a problem before, but usually I work on Solaris. HP-UX choked on several of the volumes and the "early" reports are saying that either OmniBack or the HP-UX does not want or will not write a full volume back on "restore". This could be quite serious. They are recommending 10%, but some of the volumes are 200+GB and I can't imagine having to hold back 20gb so I can restore some time down the road. Anyone else get caught with this? -- Michael Kline, Principle Consultant Business To Business Solutions 13308 Thornridge Ct Midlothian, VA 23112 804-744-1545 ---------------------------------------------------------------- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.com ---------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe send email to: oracle-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx put 'unsubscribe' in the subject line. -- Archives are at //www.freelists.org/archives/oracle-l/ FAQ is at //www.freelists.org/help/fom-serve/cache/1.html -----------------------------------------------------------------
