Hello,
My original question was :-
>I have inherited a sun sparc running sunOS 4.1.3 and I would like to
>know if it is possible to back it up to the TLZ07 tape drive on my DEC
>Alpha 3600, if so, how ?
Tom Barkanic <intrepid!tb_at_uunet.uu.net> had the solution:-
>This is the way we do it:
>rsh sun '/usr/etc/rdump 0fbsu vitran:/dev/rmt0h 64 226000 /dev/sd5g' >>>logfile
>Make sure the hostname that has the tapedrive is in the .rhosts of the >host you are backing up.
I also had to create a symbolic link from /etc/rmt to /usr/sbin/rmt on
the sun box to allow successful login to the alpha.
Many thanks also go to the following who had similar suggestions:-
Andrew Gillies <anaru_at_cns.ed.ac.uk>
David Warren <warren_at_atmos.washington.edu
David Gadbois <gadbois_at_cyc.com>
Regards
Phil.
