forgive me if I have sent this message inappropiately. The following is the results of a tape backup that was performed yesterday. This is from a 4.4.1 server started with a clean install at RC-3. The tape drive is a Seagate IDE STT20000A The tape has been performing flawless until yesterday. Yesterday I loaded live date accross the network. The resulting "files" directory added up to about 8600 files and 1.3GB. If I am reading this right the backup failed. -----Original Message----- From: Cron Daemon [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Saturday, February 24, 2001 10:15 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Cron <root@crc-server> /sbin/e-smith/backup flexbackup version 0.9.8 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> /etc/flexbackup.conf syntax OK |------------------------------------------------ | Trying "mt defblksize" instead of "mt setblk" | Doing level 0 backup of all using dump | Retensioning tape... | Rewinding & erasing tape... /dev/nst0: Input/output error | Creating index key 200102242218.41 | Tape #0 | Filesystems = / /boot |------------------------------------------------ At block 40. |------------------------------------------------ | File number 1, index key 200102242218.41 | Backup of: / | Date of this level 0 backup: Sat Feb 24 22:18:42 2001 | Date of last level 0 backup: the epoch |------------------------------------------------ | (dump -0 -b 10 -a -f - / | gzip -4) | buffer -m 3m -s 10k -u 100 -t -p 75 -B \ | -o /dev/nst0 |------------------------------------------------ DUMP: Date of this level 0 dump: Sat Feb 24 22:18:42 2001 DUMP: Date of last level 0 dump: the epoch DUMP: Dumping /dev/hda6 (/) to standard output DUMP: Label: none DUMP: mapping (Pass I) [regular files] DUMP: mapping (Pass II) [directories] DUMP: estimated 1837860 tape blocks.
