Hi Managers !
I am looking for a set of scripts that would let me to fully utilise the
features offered by the DLT891 tape mini library.
I have one Alphaserver 4100 with Tru64 UNIX 4.0E and I need to backup
files system with the script below.
# Rewind the tape before
mt -f /dev/rmt1h rewind
#echo `date`
Backup_log=`date`
# Begin backup
#
vdump -0uf /dev/nrmt1h /
vdump -0uf /dev/nrmt1h /usr
vdump -0uf /dev/nrmt1h /oracle
vdump -0uf /dev/nrmt1h /home0
vdump -0uf /dev/nrmt1h /home1
vdump -0uf /dev/nrmt1h /home2
vdump -0uf /dev/nrmt1h /home3
vdump -0uf /dev/nrmt1h /home4
vdump -0uf /dev/nrmt1h /home5
vdump -0uf /dev/nrmt1h /home6
vdump -0uf /dev/nrmt1h /home7
vdump -0uf /dev/rmt1h /ksl
echo `date`
For the backup I use now four (4) DLT 40/80 tapes. When one tape is full
the system prompts to user to change it.
As the backup is working in the night, it's very difficult for the
operator to watch the job and change the tapes tree times.
I mean that someone met this problem.
I want to modify my script by detecting the end of each full tape and
telling the robot to take automatically the following tape.
Can somebody help me to do this?
Or show me if there is other solution to resolve my problem.
Thanks for your quick reaction and regards,
OUATTARA. S.
