I'm having a wee bit of bother with a korn shell script that drives dump:
The guts of the script:
dump="${dump} -${level}${dump_flags} ${device} | gzip -9"
if [[ ! -z ${encryption} ]]; then
dump="${dump} | ${encryption} -pass file:${conf}.passwd -out"
else
dump="${dump} -o"
fi
[ ${debug} ] && echo "${dump} ${file}\n"
${dump} ${file}
[ ${digest} ] && ${digest} ${file} > ${checksum}
# cp locally, overwriting previous file of same name
# scp offsite &
The output:
dump -6anu -f - -h 0 /dev/wd0g | gzip -9 | openssl enc -bf -salt -pass
file:/etc/dumpster/teak.dumpster_slices.conf.passwd -out
/tmp/tmp.MEuYIi9135/teak/_var_mail_6_Friday.dump.gz.crypto
Excess arguments to dump: | gzip -9 | openssl enc -bf -salt -pass
file:/etc/dumpster/teak.dumpster_slices.conf.passwd -out
/tmp/tmp.MEuYIi9135/teak/_var_mail_6_Friday.dump.gz.crypto
sha1: cannot open /tmp/tmp.MEuYIi9135/teak/_var_mail_6_Friday.dump.gz.crypto:
No such file or directory
I thought it was due to the way that I had put in the encryption stuff
as it was working until then, but when I run it again without
encryption; same, same:
dump -6anu -f - -h 0 /dev/wd0g | gzip -9 -o
/tmp/tmp.qGWnO29107/teak/_var_mail_6_Friday.dump.gz
Excess arguments to dump: | gzip -9 -o
/tmp/tmp.qGWnO29107/teak/_var_mail_6_Friday.dump.gz
sha1: cannot open /tmp/tmp.qGWnO29107/teak/_var_mail_6_Friday.dump.gz: No such
file or directory
Nae gud.... src/sbin/dump/main.c shows:
if (dirlist == 0) {
disk = *argv++;
if (argc != 1) {
(void)fputs("Excess arguments to dump:", stderr);
while (--argc) {
(void)putc(' ', stderr);
(void)fputs(*argv++, stderr);
}
(void)putc('\n', stderr);
exit(X_STARTUP);
}
}
If I run the full command manually, it works as expected. Soooo, I
reckon there is something wrong with my script and the manner in which
it passes arguments to dump. Any suggestions?
