Hi managers,
I have 14 DU boxes to save so I made every day a full backup of 2
of them, using rsh :
rsh alpha7 /usr/sbin/rdump -0f alpha4:/dev/nrmt1h -b 32 /usr
Now I want to try incremental backup using :
rsh alpha7 /usr/sbin/rdump -1f alpha4:/dev/nrmt1h -b 32 /usr
but
1) the backup needed a very long time,
2) I try restore -t and see that all the files (untouched since
the last full backup) have been backed up
3) The tape was to short so I get the message
rdump: Rewinding and unloading tape
rdump: Allowing TAPE to rewind and eject ...
rdump: Change Tape: Mount volume 2, tape # 0002
rdump: Cannot open remote device file /dev/nrmt1h, retrying...
and it stops before I insert a new tape with :
rdump: Cannot fopen /dev/tty for reading
query(): fopen(): No such device or address
rdump: SIGTERM received
rdump: The ENTIRE dump is aborted
What is wrong in my idea ??
TIA
JEAN
