Originial:
Does anyone have a direct way of saving Sybase SQL Server or Sybase IQ by
 using Solstice Backup ? Remember, Sybase has its own dump.
Sybase 11.5
Solstice Backup 5.5.1

There is a BusinessSuite Module for Sybase and Networker (a.k.a Solstice
Backup)sold from Sun - part LSBIS-100-2153 for a large amount of money -
list $6750.

The problem comes from Sybase having its own dump and Solstice Backup having
another dump (really ufsdump(s)). The old way was to dump the Sybase out to
a file then dump this file to tape using Solstice Backup or tar or whatever.
With databases the sizes they are now, the old way is not a solution - too
much disk space being used.
