Hi everyone,
We have SCSI-2 tape here backing up daily. "mt status" gives the following..
newmi5:/mrtg-2.5.2# mt status
drive type = Generic SCSI-2 tape
drive status = 620756992
sense key error = 0
residue count = 0
file number = 3
block number = 5
Tape block size 0 bytes. Density code 0x25 (unknown).
Soft error count since last status=0
General status bits on (1010000):
ONLINE IM_REP_EN
newmi5:/mrtg-2.5.2#
The backup is done by the following line (taken out of a script run by
crontab)..
/mt/rewind
/sbin/dump 0udsbf 61000 20480 126 /dev/nst0 /
Now, apparently it is backing up okay. (I assume this because the file
number is 3) But when I go to do a "restore -if /dev/nst0" i get the
following..
newmi5:/mrtg-2.5.2# restore -i
Cannot find file dump list
At other times (when the tape is rewound) I get something like a "resync
something or rather".
Any ideas?
