Hi,
I need to replace a failing system drive and I'm
tring to minimize downtime.
Having recently done a software RAID conversion with
a linux box (not as slick as with Solaris), it is fresh
in my mind how to init 1 and include -x in the cp command
to move only files on the same file partition to the new
disk and partition. That isn't supported in Solaris
8's cp. The alternate cp I found (assuming GNU)
did support cp -xRpd , but either it didn't work, or
there is a problem on the source disk that is causing
it to fail.
Perhaps there is another strategy with a tar
that supports -l ? What do others do in this
situation? Forget it and reinstall the OS
followed by restore?
If anyone is familiar with legato networker's restore, how do you
exclude a subdirectory on the CLI version of restore?
e.g. I want to add /usr but not include /usr/local
(as it is on a healthy RAID), without adding every
single item in /usr one at a time.
Regards,
--Donald
