Hello,

I want to make backups of system disks of HP-UX 10 workstations
on a tape in on DEC-UNIX 3.2 server.
This procedure works well for DEC-UNIX workstations. There I
use the following command on the server:
rsh client_host "/sbin/vdump -0u -b 60 -f - /" | dd of=/dev/nrmt0h
bs=60k
Restoring the backup in a reverse way (with vrestore) works well.

When I try the same procedure on the HPs (with fbackup or dump)
the restore operation (with frecover or restore) fails.

Has anyone experience with this subject?

Thanks in advance,
Andy
