Hi group,
It seems to me that this problem must have been solved already, but I
can't find where. We are trying to "clone" an OS disk for Digital UNIX
3.2g. It's not quite a clone, because the drives are from different
manufacturers, and the block count is not identical. I'd like to use
dump/restore to copy the filesystems, but the problem is that with a near
full filesystem, the restoresymtable takes all the extra space, and the
restore fails. I have incrementals to restore after the level 0. Any ideas
of how to handle this? Can I redirect to restoresymtable? Can I link it to
/dev/null, or will this kill the incrementals?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
