    Scheduler for Sybase backups ???

    Hi all.
    I used to work with MS SQL Server for awhile,
    but now I'm starting with Sybase and first
    big disappointment - Sybase has backup routine
    but it doesn't have a scheduler for backups.
    I consider this as a big minus, also the fact that
    it doesn't have so convenient for DBA interface
    as MS SQL has. But anyway... I'm looking now for
    reliable software to schedule my nigthly backups.
    If anybody have some experience with scheduling for
    Sybase, please advise me.
    Thank you for any help.

    You aren't going to find nice GUI tools for Sybase that exist for MS SQL Server out of the box. Sybase was designed for Unix and is built with that mindset. As far as schedulers go, Sybase has a scheduler that blows the doors off anything that is in MS SQL Server. Take a look at the cron command and you'll find everything that you are looking for.
