Sorry if this seems like a stupid comment: do you mean you are "downing" Netware or Oracle? Unless your data files are really huge, you should do a daily Oracle shutdown, and backup the Oracle database files. Why is a daily EXP more efficient for you than a daily backup of the database files?
I agree that timed automation tools would really help. Please let us know how you solve this problem!!!
: do timed backups. Does anyone know of any simple utilities to do this
: automated export. Unix and VMS have the goodies to run programs at anytime
: in the background, but Netware is still primitive.
