So far we know you have some kind of nightly backups. They appear to be controlled by a custom script that someone (who?) wrote specifically (?) for your site. Since you call it a menu, it must be some sort of web page or gui thing, and DBA implies it is dumping some kind of database. Don't know what kind, what OS, etc. Flesh that out a bit for us, and let us know something about the script, who wrote it, and how it works. Then maybe someone can offer something more useful than just, "whoever wrote the script needs to include some reporting via email in it."
Fair enough, We are using Oracle based GERS Retail Systems (Now called Escalate Retail). We are using Oracle 9i on a Sun 4800 running Solaris
SunOS 5.8 Generic_108528-13 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire. The nightly backup is a dump of the Oracle database and is setup to run via cron.
Configuration file:
/dev/rmt/0un
