Hi All,
Sun Sparc Solaris 8 Generic_108528-29 on an E250
Upgrading from a 108GB RAID 5 box to a 1TB RAID box. Will be
increasing the size of most filesystems 10x. (That's the point :).)
The problem is the sparse files I know are scattered-about the source
RAID box. I've been down this road before (just a few months ago, in
fact). I've spent long hours messing with the problem. I can't recall
ever finding a satisfactory solution.
So: How best to copy everything from the 108GB RAID box to the 1TB RAID
box, both attached to a Sparc Solaris 8 box, w/o expanding the holey
files? (Obviously wish to retain ownerships, permissions, file
modification dates, etc.)
TIA,
Jim
