Hello Alexander, Starting with 7.6.02.03 there will be a "pipe2file -d stdin2pipe ..." but that will help you only with recovery. There should be a dd for Windows on this planet. If you are lucky, it is open source or freeware.

There is no build in backup compression within MaxDB yet. Best regards, Tilo Heinrich SAP Labs Berlin -----Original Message----- From: Pech, Alexander Sent: Montag, 20.
