RE: Saving Backup Errros inside the db

BN - others are already suggesting the post-backup shell script, but you do have options other than CLOB. You can save the new lines with some easy regex work and the ever-useful chr(10) or chr(13)||chr(10) trick (depending on your OS). This means you can opt for char or varchar2, which you might find *much* easier to use in the long run.
