spdsbkup User Messages

If spdsbkup successfully backs up a table, it writes notes to stdout, unless the -q option is specified. The notes include summary information such as the name of the table that was backed up, the number of observations that were backed up, and whether a full backup or an incremental backup was performed.

If spdsbkup cannot back up a table, it prints a warning message that states why the table could not be backed up.

If the spdsbkup utility detects a serious failure condition, it stops the backup process and prints an error message that states the reason for the failure.
