Hi admins
i received lot of answers to my question. Most of them say to use "-f
serveur:device" option of fbackup. But this method is very slow.
The best one i received and used (through a gigabit LAN, it works fine) is
the following:
I would suggest using fbackup with dd. "standalone" fbackup on the network
is rather slow.
And you can use it with remsh or ssh in this way.
The key: use the same block size with dd at the restoration as with the
fbackup.
To restore you can adapt the following examples:
(My original example mail for one of my customer is a long hungarian mail.
I'm lazy to translate it; please see fbackup and frecover man pages)
1.to check/read only the content of the tape:
remsh gaia dd if=/dev/rmt/0m bs=128k | frecover -r -N -v -f -
2. To restore /tmp/1 to /tmp/test (local usage, you can add remsh/ssh to use
it via the network) cd /tmp/test dd if=/dev/rmt/0m bs=128k | frecover -x -v
-X -i /tmp/1 -f -
3. To restore a single file to the current directory (the same applies):
dd if=/dev/rmt/0m bs=128k | frecover -x -v -X -F -i
/tmp/1/depot/catalog/INDEX -f -
Thanks to all.
