Hello managers,
Our hardware platforms running Tru64 5.1B all have two identical disks.
I've got a script which creates a bootable tape of a certain disk using btcreate.
This bootable tape can correctly perform a non-interactive restore to the same disk (with custom_disklabel_file, custom_install.sh etc).
I'd like to restore from tape to a different disk (not the one from which the tape was made), but I have the following problem:
When booting from the tape, the message displayed are:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Non-interactive restore file present. <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
INTERACTIVE="no"
TDRIVE="tape0_d1"
RESTORE_TYPE="yes"
SPART="b"
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Non-interactive restore file present. <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
To disable:
1) break (Ctrl/C) out of this program
2) rm /etc/custom_prerestore
3) /sbin/btextract
Sleeping for 2 min. and then resuming install...
I interrupt the procedure at this stage because I wanted to restore to the other disk.
^C
Interrupt... Exiting btextract
User terminated btextract process.
Exiting btextract.
rm: /tmp: Permission denied
Then I perform the steps 1-3, but in step (3), btextract exits with the following errors:
mfs: mount: Device busy
Failed to mount MFS on /tmp.
rm: /tmp: Permission denied
Does anybody knows why it fails and have you been able to perform a restore to a different disk successfully?
Best regards,
Michael BÜTOW
