I use the following script to backup my system to a TLZ7L (a 4mm dat auto
loader)
This also produces the same symptom when just typed on the terminal.
#!/bin/sh
/sbin/dump -0un -N -f /dev/rmt0h -b 32 /
/sbin/dump -0un -f /dev/rmt0h -b 32 /usr
/sbin/dump -0un -N -f /dev/rmt0h -b 32 /usr1
/sbin/dump -0un -f /dev/rmt0h -b 32 /usr2
/sbin/dump -0un -f /dev/rmt0h -b 32 /usr4
/sbin/dump -0un -f /dev/rmt0h -b 32 /usr5
this used to work just fine but now it doesn't (of course (I have yet to see
notes about gee this still works))
the first dump is executed and then the process just stalls forever (well not
forever since I haven't waited that long yet)
the out out put on the screen looks like this:
# backdev
dump: Dumping from host dcpaxr.eksystems.com

Message from the dump program to all operators at 20:07 ...
DUMP IS DONE!
and it just sits there waiting and waiting and waiting...
I do a
ps -a | grep dump
2959 ttyp7 I + 0:00.20 /sbin/dump -0un -N -f /dev/ mt0h -b 32 /
3115 ttyp7 I + 0:00.08 /sbin/dump -0un -N -f /dev/ mt0h -b 32 /
3134 ttyp7 I + 0:00.01 /sbin/dump -0un -N -f /dev/ mt0h -b 32 /
3071 ttyp9 S + 0:00.02 grep dump
gives this
I am stuck any ideas??
