Hi,
I have a system running Digital UNIX ver. 4.0B. I am planning to upgrade it to ver 4.0E. But before I do this I wish to take image
backup of my root and usr filesystem to another disk and then carry on the upgrade on new disk so that I have my original
disk intact. I have tried using follwing command to move /usr to another disk after I have partioned and mounted my new disk
to /mnt.
dump -0f - /usr | ( cd /mnt ; restore -xf - )
but this command fails reporting insufficient blocks available and dump is not a tape.
Is there anything wrong with the syntax? I doubt that it is to do with some patch need to applied to dump and restore command
in order to work in pipe mode.
Can some one help me in finding the solution?
TIA
