Re: Varying back up times

[rob@xxxxxxxxx]

We do log the save, however we log the library name, job name/user/number 
of the backup, timestamp of when the save of that library completed.  To 
figure out the duration of the save we would have to subtract the previous 
libraries timestamp.  Sort of like a look behind function.  And for this 
purpose, if I can't do a simple sql function I really don't want to write 
a program to do so.

So what would I do based on this information?  If the time on library X 
was more than the previous night but library Y wasn't I would do...?

We use PRTERRLOG daily.
