Seems that the 'vdump ... | rsh vrestore ...' command works fine when I
run it from a command prompt but NOT when I run it from a shell script.
When I say it doesn't run what I really mean is that it doesn't complete
-- it does run for several minutes and appears to be copying files
before it generates the error message. Any possible explanation?
Thanks!

Fellow Managers,
I'm trying to get a large of amount of data from one alpha server to
another (they are both running Tru64 5.1A and are on a LAN). My latest
method of accomplishing this is to use "vdump ... | rsh
{remote_server_name} vrestore ...". This works most of the time.
However, sometimes it produces the following message:
vrestore: unable to read from save-set; [54] Connection reset by
peer
and the process aborts.
I know it's a fairly generic message but are there things I can do to
fix it/prevent it? Are other tools more reliable for accomplishing
this? Are there any commands I can use to make it reconnect with
aborting? Since we have to run this from cron at a certain time during
the day we really need this to be very reliable.
The machine that is sending is a DS20E with a 1 gbps nic. The remote
machine is an AS 800 with a 100 mbps nic (both nics are running full
duplex).
Many thanks!
Andy
