Before I do this, I want to know if anyone here relies on the specific order of the contents of the md5 or sha1 sum files for the dumps, or on the order of the entries in the dumpruninfo file. The reason I want to fiddle with the order is to have all the table dumps together, rather than scattered around in these files. And the reason for that is convenience; I'm about to update the code that adds these jobs as steps to be run, and it's more readable/maintainable to add them all in one group. Anyone here who would be impacted? Please let me know; I'd like to roll this out for the second monthly run. Thanks, Ariel
