Hello again,
TRU64 UNIX V5.1A, ES40, DLT QUANTUM 7000
Thanks for the responses so far but unfortunately the suggestions did
not resolve my problem. (I will summarize all when I solve the issue).
I have changed the tape unit and ran a cron job using the dump
command.
I apoligize for all the information I have enclosed but I am
desperately trying to resolve this. I have concerns that I might have a
problem with my /u (the filesystem I am trying to backup/restore).
THIS IS THE MAIN BODY OF THE BACKUP JOB..
PATH=/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
ps -Af >> $bkupdir/$cur_date".backup.reports"
/sbin/dump -0uf /dev/ntape/tape3 / &
#DUMP OF ROOT
wait $! #control processing
if [ $? != 0 ]; then
echo "$? - Root Dump Failed" >>
$bkupdir/$cur_date".backup.reports"
else
echo "$? - Root Dump Successful" >>
$bkupdir/$cur_date".backup.reports"
fi
/sbin/dump -0uf /dev/ntape/tape3 /usr &
#DUMP OF /usr
wait $!
if [ $? != 0 ]; then
echo " $? - User Dump Failed" >>
$bkupdir/$cur_date".backup.reports"
else
echo "$? - User Dump Successful" >>
$bkupdir/$cur_date".backup.reports"
fi
/sbin/dump -0uf /dev/ntape/tape3 /u &
#DUMP OF /u - the data section I desperately need to backup
wait $!
if [ $? != 0 ]; then
echo " $? - U-sirsi Dump Failed" >>
$bkupdir/$cur_date".backup.reports"
else
echo " $? - U-sirsi Dump Successful" >>
$bkupdir/$cur_date".backup.repor
