Please review your local man pages for 'ufsdump' (and 'ufsrestore'). The easiest way to do remote dumps is to NFS-export/mount a filesystem on the remote host, with write permissions. Then: ufsdump 0uf /opt /mount-point-from-remote/opt.dump This will place your dump in a file named 'opt.dump' If you are looking to expand the dump on the remote (i.e., replicate the entire filesystem as it exists on the source), you need a dump-restore pipeline: ufsdump 0uf /opt - | (cd /mount-point-from-remote;ufsrestore xf -) There are also possibilities of doing these via rsh or ssh, using similar syntax to the last example. Note you can also do filesystem duplications via cpio or find; see the man pages for details. -- Tim Evans, TKEvans.com, Inc. | 5 Chestnut Court UNIX System Admin Consulting | Owings Mills, MD 21117 http://www.tkevans.com/ | 443-394-3864 http://www.come-here.com/News/ | tkev...@tkevans.com _______________________________________________ Solaris-Users mailing list Solaris-Users@filibeto.org http://www.filibeto.org/mailman/listinfo/solaris-users
