We used to use it. The complaint I had about it was that the directory
is stored on the end of the last tape of the backup set. I had to
restore some data for an audit. It took over an hour to restore one file
and most of that time was finding the directory.

Hi Paul,

I use it, and works very good..

Example, it reduces my system's full backup time from 8 hours (STORE,
offline) to 1 hour and 45 mins moreover it's online.

Nice, isn't it?

Good day,
K. Mavi.

Is anyone using Backup+/iX supplied by Orbit Software?

I have read the literature about it but wondered how well it actually
worked
and the benefits/drawbacks, etc/

Thanks in advance!!
