DB Engine: Online 7.3

I'm using onbar to do my backups with Veritas Netbackups.

Is there a way to backup the logical logs to Disk instead of having them
go directly to tape with "onbar -l"?

The reason is, From time to time the backup server is having issues
and it takes a while for the backup team to repond to my panic because
all the logicals are getting full.

## script to backup logs on an AIX box
# Backup Informix Logical Logs to disk file
export INFORMIXDIR=/u/informix
export PATH=.:$INFORMIXDIR:$INFORMIXDIR/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/etc
export TERMCAP=/u/informix/etc/termcap
export INFORMIXTERM=/u/informix/etc/termcap
export TERM=tm220
export INFORMIXSERVER=dbserver1
export ONCONFIG=onconfig.server1
export DBSPACETEMP=oldserver
CONS="/dev/console"
BACKDIR="/backup"
LOGFILE="$BACKDIR/LOG/`date +%b%d%H%M`.log"
cat /dev/null > $LOGFILE
SleepTime=60

dsply_msg()
{
echo $1 | tee -a $LOGFILE >$CONS 2>&1
}

#
# Execute the Logical Logs Backup
#
su - informix -c "ontape -a <<+
\012
y

+" | tee -a $LOGFILE >$CONS 2>&1

mv informix_backup/ll.`date +%m%d%H%M`
>/dbwork/informix_backup/ll # Create empty ll file
chmod 666 informix_backup/ll
chown informix:informix informix_backup/ll

dsply_msg "\tFinished Logical Log Backups at `date +"%H:%M:%S"`\n"

Can I mixe ontape and onbar?

I'm still using onbar for my whole backup.

If doing a restore I would I procede recovering with the logical that were back up whit ontape?
