I am trying to do an online probkup and it asks me for another device/filename about half way through?? tha backup needed 3.9 gig and I have well over 6 gig available on the drive I specified.
Is there a way to use -com with an online backup? If so what should the command look like
Thanks in advance

You didn't mention the version, but it looks like you need multiple volumns for a 3.9 GB backup (2GB limit). So you will need to provide another volumn name to finish the backup.
probkup online dbname /diskname/dbname.bk1 -com
when it asks for another volume name enter "/diskname/dbname.bk2" or
probkup online dbname /diskname/dbname.bk1 -com < response.fil
where response.fil is a list of additional volumes
/diskname/dbname.bk2
/diskname/dbname.bk3
/diskname/dbname.bk4
At 3.9 GB yours would only use volumes bk1 and bk2, as soon as it goes over 4GB, it will use bk3.
