Communication with ON-Bar

CA ARCserve Backup lets you configure batch jobs. Using CA ARCserve Backup, you can configure one IDS instance at a time. You can use the Informix Agent Batch Job Configuration dialog to submit backup and restore jobs using the ON-Bar command line on the IDS. However, if the agent server is hosting multiple instances of IDS, you must reconfigure the batch job configuration for each backup or restore job submitted through the ON-Bar command line.

Note: If you use CA ARCserve Backup and Restore Managers tools as your methods for initiating backup or restore jobs, the batch job configuration process is unnecessary.

You can also use the Informix Agent Configuration dialog to submit backup and restore jobs using the ON-Bar utility.
