- We did this thing several times with a HP/Oracle environment. Our unix
guy
needed some hotline support the first time, since that it works
without probs.
- We are dumping the data directly on a tape (via a named pipe I think).
Takes
about 35 hours per load/reload for 27 gig.
- Most people will probably have faster tape backups than we have. If
you have
enough disk space that should be MUCH faster than this.

instruction -- from which, by induction, one can deduce that every
program can be reduced to one instruction which doesn't work.
