Guys,

thanks for all the replies. Apologies for not getting back sooner.
You have all been very helpful.

Out of interest I have been using Ignite make_recovery and make_tape_recovery (on 11.00), basically for convenience. This has also allowed me to use the backups to clone new systems (which I have had to do quite alot). Moreover, it has been very easy to script Ignite to schedule regular backups out of hours.

However, I do intend to start looking at fbackup as I have heard good reviews about that also.

Thanks again ;-)
