Hi,

Encountered failed backups using onbar, my system is Solaris 2.6 using Solstice Backup.

Was the failed backup caused by wrong root password?

Greatly appreciate any reply.

Probably the user 'root' cannot connect to db and onbar failed.
Maybe you should use user 'informix'.
'informix' has default all access.
That's why we use user 'informix'

Try again.
