backup command that will send e-mail to mount 2nd tape
Hi,
I'm trying to come out with a script that uses the 'backup' command to backup large filesystems. Most of the time this data takes two or three DLT tapes to complete. The backup takes too long because operations never sees the message to mount 2nd tape. I have a script that uses sysback and have an option -c to send request to a file which I then send e-mail. But 'backup' command does not have it. Please help.

I get the error that the command mail is not found. Does anyone know if there is a different command line to send mail? Can I install the command?
Thanks,
